The veil is thin, a whisper soft and low
Where shadows dance and ancient rivers flow
No sun to warm, no moon to guide the way
Only the endless twilight of a different day
The familiar faces, now a distant gleam
Calling from the edges of a waking dream
(Chorus)
In the spirit world, the clock has lost its hands
Time is not a master, just a shifting sands
You can hear the laughter of a life gone by
See the silent tears that loved ones cry
In the spirit world, the boundaries start to fade
A tapestry of memory, forever re-made
(Verse 2)
The scent of autumn on a winter's wind
A fleeting echo of a story's end
I reach for you, and my hand passes through
The air is cold with a love so true
The weight of sorrow and the joy of grace
Colliding in this timeless, holy space
(Chorus)
In the spirit world, the clock has lost its hands
Time is not a master, just a shifting sands
You can hear the laughter of a life gone by
See the silent tears that loved ones cry
In the spirit world, the boundaries start to fade
A tapestry of memory, forever re-made
(Bridge)
Some say it's heaven, some call it a lie
Just the last breath before we say goodbye
But I have felt the presence, a gentle touch
The proof of everything I loved so much
It's not an ending, it's a different start
A beating drum within a broken heart
(Chorus)
In the spirit world, the clock has lost its hands
Time is not a master, just a shifting sands
You can hear the laughter of a life gone by
See the silent tears that loved ones cry
In the spirit world, the boundaries start to fade
A tapestry of memory, forever re-made
(Outro)
So don't forget me, when my song is through
I'll be right here, watching over you
In the quiet corners where the daylight dies
I'll be the silent comfort in your weary eyes
The spirit world is not so far away
Just a breath between tonight and yesterday.
