Cassiel's Song |
| Weve come to bring you home |
| Havent we, Cassiel? |
| To cast aside your loss and all of your sadness |
| And shuffle off that mortal coil and mortal madness |
| For were here to pick you up and bring you home |
| Arent we, Cassiel? |
| Its a place where you did not belong |
| Where time itself was mad and far too strong |
| Where life leapt up laughing and hit you hear on and hurt you |
| Didnt it hurt you, Cassiel? |
| While time outran you and trouble flew toward you |
| And you were there to greet it Werent you, foolish Cassiel? |
| But here we are, weve come to call you home |
| And here youll stay, never more to stray |
| Where you can kick off your boots of clay |
| Cant you, Cassiel? |
| For death and you did recklessly collide |
| And time ran out of you, and you ran out of time |
| Didnt you, Cassiel? |
| And all the clocks in all the world |
| May this once just skip a beat in memory of you |
| But then again those damn clocks, they probably wont |
| Will they, Cassiel? |
| One moment you are there |
| Then strangely you are gone |
| But on behalf of us all here |
| Were glad to have you home |
| Arent we, dear Cassiel? |
