Caught by the light aware but asleep Never as close as the friends that you keep Drifting away on one final breath The further you climb, calm silhouette And takes you along, long, long, long And takes you along, long, long, long Far from a world ailing to live Far from the wreckage you were left in And the crossing is over where the righteous remain In the memory it's deeper, survived by a name The rest is sufficient, a midnight complaint Left waiting in silence, left only to sleep It takes you along, long, long, long And takes you along.
