"Eventide" lyrics - KAMELOT

Passing through the dark
Like silent ships at night
Drifting on the waves to find a beacon
A peaceful harbor
Here you are again
Just like so many times before
To share with me the stories of our lives

[Pre-Chorus:]
From you, my friend
I ask just one thing

[Chorus:]
Shine your light in Eventide
Companion 'til all hope has died
Until life and death will reunite
Your song shall guide me through
My house of pain

[Post-Chorus:]
Spiritual Oracle

A passenger departs
Into the vast unknown
Lovingly he reads the final chapter
They ever wrote
The company more comforting
Than words could ever say
Until the ending pages
I will stay

[Pre-Chorus:]
From you, my friend
I ask just one thing

[Chorus:]
Shine your light in Eventide
Companion till all hope has died
Until life and death will reunite
Your song shall guide me through
My house of pain

[Post-Chorus:]
Spiritual Oracle

[Bridge:]
We did not go quietly into the night
Old friend, now it's time for you and I
To wave our goodbye

[Pre-Chorus:]
I will be there waiting with a smile
When you arrive

[Chorus:]
I'll shine my light in Eventide
Companion till all hope has died
Until life and death will reunite
My song shall guide you through
My house of pain
