Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sweet child of innocence
Living in the present tense
Father Time will take his toll
Rock your body and steal your soul
[Verse 2]
What became of all the years?
Are you drowning in your tears?
Who will catch you when you fall?
Who will hear you when you call?
[Verse 3]
I will comfort you
Take your hand and see you through
I will take you through the door
[Verse 4]
Who do you think you are?
Try to live forever and you won't get far
I wait behind your door
It makes no difference if you're rich or poor
[Verse 5]
Though you're weary and afraid
Still you try to flee my blade
Come and walk in my new land
If you'll only take my hand
[Verse 6]
I will comfort you
Take your hand and see you through
I will take you through the door
[Verse 7]
In the image of those who have walked before me here
I am cast in the web of an ancient spell
I'm holding on to life, I'm drifting in a stream
Everything's much clearer now
We live within a dream and never wake
[Verse 8]
No, we never wake
[Verse 9]
Judge not by what you see
More than you could count are here with me
Give up your foolish pride
All that walk the Earth have died
[Verse 10]
What became of all the years?
Are you drowning in your tears?
Who will catch you when you fall?
Who will hear you when you call?
[Verse 11]
I will comfort you
Take your hand and see you through
I will take you through the door
[Verse 12]
I will comfort you
Take your hand and see you through
I will take you through the door
