Father father Can you tell me Where the hours go Where time flows? It is written in the stars Upon the milky way That we must burn bright Before we fade away?
Mother mother Can you tell me Where the fire goes When the flames cease? From the ashes to the astral plain Where the setting Sun meets the sea, Brendan
I live by the river Where the old gods still dream Of inner communion With the open sea
Through the eye of the hunter In search of a prey Neither beast nor human In my philosophy
If you don't recognise me Well it's simply because I've outgrown these old clothes Time to move on
For you and I will outlive The masks life gave us When this shadowplay comes To a close
