Edenbridge - What You Leave Behind lyrics

AS SURE AS FATE AS ALL DRAWS TO A CLOSE A MOMENTOUS WEIGHT AS AN ERA GOES HOMEWARD BOUND AM I BUT WILL MY HEART EVER BE THE SANDS HAVE RUN OUT WOEBEGONE THE FACE THE PARTING HOUR IS NEAR THE BEAUTY OF THIS PLACE THIS FLAME OF PASSION HERE A BITTER ERRAND WAITS IN THE WAKE OF MEMORIES THE SOUND OF MY FATE [CHORUS] THE END WE COULD ALL BE HEROES THEN WHEN THINGS MAY TAKE A TURN AND ALL BOATS COME TO BURN WHAT HAVE WE GOT BY IT IN THE END ? THE END CASTS A LURID LIGHT ON ME THE EYES OF FRIEND AND FOE WHEN ALL WAS TOUCH AND GO IT'S ALWAYS WHAT YOU LEAVE BEHIND IF WISHES WERE HORSES AND HOPES WERE bu*tERFLIES THE SPAN OF LIFE FORCES OUR THOUGHTS TO MEMORIZE BUT IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN IF WE ARE BOUND FOR ANY WAY WHEN THE DIE IS CAST IS CAST THE BIG POND OF THE SCALDING TEARS THE FLICKER OF A SMILE A MODE OF MOTION KEEPS US HOLDING ON WHEN ALL IS SAID AND DONE AND TIME IS STRIKING SAILS SCATTERED TO THE FOUR WINDS WE'LL BE GONE [CHORUS]
