“Till our souls are at rest” Lyrics

You were like the northern lights

Never seen them but I hear they're bright

I would build you a castle dear

Even if it took ten thousand years

Whisk me away sweet memories of old

Bring me closer to her than what I've known

Capital L on a word of hope

Without love we're all just blowing smoke

Just blowing smoke

Half a century is a long time

Spent my heart on treasures I'd find

Should've gave you more I confess

Please forgive me till our souls are at rest

Whisk me away sweet memories of old

Bring me closer to her than what I've known

Capital L on a word of hope

Without love we're all just blowing smoke

Just blowing smoke

Down in the grave you can hear my song

My hand can reach you though the ground hasn't thawed

Now our bodies are covered by wood

Let's run away the Lord said that we could

Take me away my stories been told

The two of us and are spirits have finally flown

Freed my selfishness still thought I'd choke

Without love we're all just blowing smoke

Just blowing smoke

Just blowing smoke
