Grave Sweet Grave

I have seen my funeral in a thousand dreams
It's beautyâ?¦
Now the night descends
And drowns me in this dream once againâ?¦

No stars tonightâ?¦ they all have ceased
No moon tonight to cast its gleam
Just a single flame lighting my journeyâ?¦

Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid

Endless sleepâ?¦ giving me peace
And eternally bringing release
Nothing more to be done
Nothing more to be lived for me

All my life I´ve waited for this eternal night
And now it´s time
Soon they´ll lower me down deep into the icy ground

Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid

And once there´ll be a time that I have waited for
When the dawn will steal my dreams no more

Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
Grave Sweet Grave welcoming me home
Grave Sweet Grave I´ll be yours 'til the dawn

(The dawn shall steal my dreams no more)
