While I lay as cold as stone
Learn not to be afraid
For all that you must face alone
Through stormy weather sails the ship

You said the battle's nearly won
I've run into the arms of love
It's helped to pull me through
And now I hear you whisper to me
'The rest is up to you'.

I would wander wondering
between the stones.
Reading names of those who
