To Remain Tombless

The weary creak of my bones
 Exhausted voice and deathly tones
 Arms of lead, skin drawn tight
 No longer a princely sight
 Face is gaunt, pale and thin
 Bent and grey and full of sin
 ♪
 Pass to me
 Wine and song
 For I'll be
 Soon long gone
 Cast me down, upon the dust
 My dry bones remain tombless
 From my life, a rose is grown
 Rains they come, the winds blow
 Winter haunts me
 Nowhere to flee
 Take me back, young was I
 Within her arms, we could fly
 Grey am I, and all alone
 I feel like I'm far from home
 ♪
 Grace has fled here
 But He is so near
 In shadows lie
 My hopes of life
 Black wings fold me
 In their symphony
 Long the winter nights are
 Grace is so far
 Leaves, they fall in time
 Drifting down in time
 Darkness comes, right on time
 ♪
 Descend upon me
 Wings from above
 Goodbye to lie
 Farewell, my love
 Grace has fled here
 But he is so near
