Pretty Yende - Three and Thirty Years lyrics

[Verse 1] Three and thirty years I tried To forget all the tears I cried Then one who knew me long ago Appeared upon my lonely road [Verse 2] Warning me of trouble soon And talking me of pending doom Then all at once he disappeared And left me in a tomb of fear [Verse 3] Pray in silence, brave the cold A son, a mother, priest and robe Will hold The Word until their sleep A dove will fly above the keep [Verse 4] Now forever life is gone Beholden to a sacred song The sun will too late understand That dark consumes the light of man That dark consumes the light of man
