Wake for Young Souls

Today I found my soul

I felt it die inside of me

So I turn to you

Life is like that you know

I have your face in a photo in high school when you were alive but that's all I have

And I can't remember who I was myself then and it doesn't help still I look to you as a friend to tell me

Who we are now, who we are

Who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls

Who we are now, who we are

Who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls

Like a lullaby we sing

Well the wind that blows its blowing colder and the child that grows she's growing older

And friends we know they'll turn a shoulder

The friends we know they are growing colder

Who we are now, who we are

Who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls

Who we are now, who we are

Who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls

Where's my soul

Cycle of the moon brings blood to the women

In the blood of the woman brings birth of a child

Child grow up

Keep forgetting something

Birth of a child comes someplace wild you

Even grey days beat the shade to wean

Unbodied unsouled unheard unseen

Let the gift be grown in the time to call our own

Let the truth be sewn before the window's closing

Truth is natural like a wind that blows

Follow the direction no matter where it goes

So it shall be the earth and the sea

Let the truth blow like a hurricane through me

If I've been cold, if I've spoken in anger, to have been bold, forgive me

You know I don't see your mother, not like before, though she hasn't forgotten she doesn't like to be reminded anymore.

Annie got married it didn't come with out tears like the day you died I have laughter for these years

Who we are now, who we are

Who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls

Who we are now, who we are

Who we are now, who we are

Where does time go now on a wake for young souls

All the things we know are going to fall away from me like a grain of sand slips through a good friends hand
