lyrics

It won’t be easy
Won’t be easy at all, Ma
You’ve a twilight journey
Down from on the hill, Ma

The voice says don’t forget me
Don’t let me forget me
We’ve come this far
Why can’t we sit beside the sea
Just as we are

There’s one bell ringing
Warning songs
Fog frays the edges
Of what’s been and gone

Is it worse to lose
Or be lost, Pa?
And can you find your way back home
Now the moon’s clouded over?

He says don’t be scared son,
No don't be scared son, I’m still here
And though the night is dark
It’s your mother’s voice I hear

We’re like two bells ringing
Hands entwined
One leads the way now
One follows behind

We’re like two bells ringing
Hands entwined
One leads the way now
One follows behind
