The Afterguide

Leaden sky, a snowy lane

The dateless willows standing stripped

Weeping cry of mourning train

An angel's waiting on the crypt

Goodbye, my little child

A better world awaits you

We’ve lost your shining smile

We’ll always, always miss you

Now lord is watching for a soul

That left your flesh today

Goodbye, my little child, and fly away…

Callow ghost fell out of shell

A frightened girl in dead men's land

Faint shade of young Michelle

The angel takes her lifeless hand

Goodbye, my little child

A better world awaits you

We’ve lost your shining smile

We’ll always, always miss you

Now lord is watching for a soul

That left your flesh today

Goodbye, my little child, and fly away…

A crystal tear

A crystal tear has fallen

The gate is near

The light of new asylum

The angel leads the way

Its wings are widely spread

Farewell, you cannot stay

New home lies ahead

Goodbye, my little child

A better world awaits you

We’ve lost your shining smile

We’ll always, always miss you

Now lord is watching for a soul

That left your flesh today

Goodbye, my little child, and fly away…
