Venice - The Family Tree lyrics

Branches in the wind Still standing here together One more storm to weather We'll get through it yet So we're gathered here Holding on to each other To let go of another one we won't forget Now as we say goodbye To one of our own We may be lonely But we're not alone Though the leaves will fall And the tears will flow May it always comfort us to know The family tree will always grow Father down to son, mother to daughter Thicker than water, we are made of this From the Earth we rise To the Earth returning We'll keep a candle burning For the ones we'll miss And when we say goodbye To one of our own We may be lonely But we're not alone Though the leaves will fall And the tears will flow May it always comfort us to know The family tree will always grow It's stronger than the wind can blow The family tree will always grow
