paroles de chanson Home Before Dark - Testament

A piece of me died when your last light went out
You left and gently close the door
I raged and I shouted from this side of life
But you couldn't hear me anymore
Where once two flames dance together
Now there's just a spark
The days are less bright without you
But I confess that I prayed as I smiled at you
That you'd be called home
Home before dark
I promised I'd love you 'til death tore us apart
I'll always take care of you
And now that you're gone, there's a hole in my heart
But I'm glad that you've made it safe home
Home before dark
You've switched off the lights in your world one by one
I'd watched the rooms dim from outside
Helplessly trying to break down the door
Pleading to be let inside
'Cause I promised to love you and take care of you
But sometimes I tried too hard
So through the anger and guilt I continue to pray
That you'd be called home
Home before dark
Sometimes when I saw when you smiled at me
A glimpse of how we were
Then you'd hide deep inside and leave me outside
You in dark, me in day
I'd watch you fading away
Sixty plus years that our lives were intwined
Three strands braided as one
Our dreams were bright, we shone like the sun
But the braid became slowly undone
From the dark you saw strangers not family
And your smiles tore our hearts apart
And though I miss you dearly
In my prayers were answered when you were called home
Home before dark
I promised I'd love you 'til death tore us apart
And I'll always take care of you
And now that you're gone, there's a hole in my heart
But I'm glad that you've made it safe home
Home before dark
