Karl Jenkins - When The Shadows Die Lyrics

How should we weep when the shadow dies
Fading, slipping till the sun lies
Asleep?
Should we now leave
For the stars shed no light?
Or shall we mourn by the shallow moon
That has no dawn
No day, say
Shall we stay?
And still
Shall we grieve by the shallow grave
Of a flown-away life like a fallen leaf
And if so, how?
And when winter blows
Might we rest by the empty tree?
Shall we try? Should I?
Nobody knows
But if to be alive is to belong
Then we must
Keep
Still
This song

Soprano & baritone soli
Sing it until the end of the night
Sing it, sing it, for our children loved light

My child loved light
