The Raven's Lament

[Verse] Oh raven of mine Where art thou gone? Has darkness claimed you A silence withdrawn? (ooh-yeah) No more can I hear your mournful cries Tell me Dear raven Where do you fly? [Verse 2] I hear a knocking A tapping at my door Is it you Dear raven Back forevermore? (ooh-yeah) Your beak pecks at my heart My very soul Why the despair in your eyes Yet hope in your wings? [Chorus] But I won't let go I won't let go I'll follow the raven wherever it may go Through darkness and despair I'll stay by its side For the raven's sorrow I'll no longer hide (ooh-yeah) [Verse] Will you carry my burdens to the unknown? Dear raven Are you the one I've been waiting for? (waiting for) I should tremble But your grace is mesmerizing Take me Oh raven Guide me through the darkest hour (oh-yeah) [Verse 2] In this world of shadows Will you set me free? Dear raven With eyes as deep as the abyss (oh-oh) In your presence Fear gives way to fascination Lead me through the depths of despair Bring me back to life (oh-oh-oh) [Chorus] Wings of the raven Take me higher than before Through the storm and the silence To the promised shore Your feathers embrace As I journey alone Oh Raven Be my guide Bring me back home (ooh-yeah)
