In Remembrance (Acoustic Version)

My child, my fleeting hour has come,
There's no mercy for me, no pardon
Close my eyes, I know you're overcome
And I have failed to guard you.

Over mountains, through the meadows,
You travelled far from home
By the hand of your father
I'm left, abandoned, alone.

Hear my voice, remember who cradled you
Who loved you and swore to guide you,
Through the darkest hours of your life,
Return to me, if only tonight.

My child, let your kisses console my heart,
Revive me with your smile
All is gone now, now all is lost
Hear me plead for one last goodbye.

Over mountains, through the meadows
He carried you far from home
By his hand, the hand of your father
We're left, abandoned, alone.

Hear my voice, remember who cradled you
Who loved you and swore to guide you,
Through the darkest hours of your life
Return to me, if only tonight.

Hear my voice, remember who cradled you
Who loved you and swore to guide you,
Through the darkest hours of your life
Return to me, my child
Let us reunite.
