Graveyards of the Mind
Samhain, when the borders are thin
And we remember our dearest kin
Shadows of the past, time alive
Those we mourn, those we shrive
Samhain, when the borders are thin
And we remember our dearest kin
Shadows of the past, time alive
Those we mourn, those we shrive
Bonfires burning, flames in night
Awakenings and the second sight
And at the dolmen, here we pray
Votive offerings, a precious day
That sacred site, ancient stones
Our ancestors, bone of our bones
Remember: joy and sorrow both
To plight our troth, to make an oath
And then weep: loves labours lost
A wrench of parting, paying cost
Mourning: love turned to tears
Light a candle, no more fears
Awakenings and the second sight
And at the dolmen, here we pray
Votive offerings, a precious day
That sacred site, ancient stones
Our ancestors, bone of our bones
Remember: joy and sorrow both
To plight our troth, to make an oath
And then weep: loves labours lost
A wrench of parting, paying cost
Mourning: love turned to tears
Light a candle, no more fears
