Forsaken
Dear Children,
it is time to go
Dry your tears, bid adieu
She will not come. call no more
Silence greets us yet once more.
Reason knows not why it is so
Of love and loved ones she let go.
Lost is she to our cry and plea
Lost forever to us . Oh! Lost are we.
Once there was nought but harmony,
We thought 'twould be so for eternity;
'Twas heaven to be in her embrace
In her gentle touch such solace
Her voice all but music to the ears
To quiet all and quell fears
But unheeded now goes our plea
Our cry of torment . Oh! Tormented are we
One day we will return to this place
To pay our homage to her grace
Try to be strong, Try to be brave
Comfort each other around her grave
We will sing of loneliness, and of pain
Knowing alas, we sing in vain
We will sing of our grief, our forlorn plea
The song of the forsaken . Oh! Forsaken are we.
