Kindred Spirits

The candlelight is fading as I gently kneel and say
An Ave for my mother as her spirit slips away
Away to join my father and to share eternity
We call them kindred spirits now they will forever be.

So now they're reunited, smiling down from up above
As fondly we remember the old house they filled with love
How even through the hard times they were close as close could be
Just like the kindred spirits they will forever be.

Now love was as deep as the ocean
Flying higher than the eagles would dare
As strong as the mountains in Donegal
As soft as a morning in Clair.

I can see her in the kitchen. I can smell the baking bread
I can hear my father singing as he tucked us into bed
They shared the love together, they were proud as proud could be
And now those kindred spirits will share eternity.

They shared the love together, they were proud as proud could be
They were always kindred spirits now they will forever be
For now those kindred spirits will share eternity.
