Dead Can Dance - Hymn for the Fallen lyrics

My attends to you As a mother hears While her children sleep Now look See how they're dreaming The black reciter reads While the children sleep Don't go so deep in slumber Where you'll shy Know you'll wander in sleep Don't you fly too far away Some men die without crying Suffering so long and alone Softly children dry your eyes Gently children be wise My attends to you As a mother hears All her children's fears So don't cry All will wash away When we pray Soon soon soon soon soon So if it's okay i'll wait with you while The sun began to shine Oh look your wings are broken But never a lie was spoken The murdered thing is love you see Drifting on a lake of memory Now sleep close your eyes and have no fear A wide blue sky is very near My attends to you As a mother hears Her children's fears Sleep
