Soon

Hands of wisdom
How they tremble
Drink from the sweet cup
It’s bitter still
All this heartache
Poison water
A little bit longer
A little bit more
Soon
Clouds appear and lights go dim
All will pass
Home at last
Close up all the doors
Bring the music low
Break the silver cord
Turning back to dust
Soon
Clouds appear and lights go dim
All will pass
Home at last
Night is falling
For this stranger
Sparks fly upward
Then disappear
Soon
Clouds appear and lights go dim
All will pass
Home at last
