The Parting (Sweet Sorrow) Lyrics


Farewell my sweet love, I’m leaving your side

My calling has come, to which I must abide

I know that it hurts you, but please dear don’t cry

Light a candle in my memory, should I die

There’s no sense in dreaming, for dreams never last

There’s no sense in wanting the days of the past

There’s no sense in wishing with you I will stay

Fight I must until victory day

I’ll kiss your sweet lips and then I must part

The sorrow inside, the pain in my heart

But think of the new dawn, our banner unfurled

In a whiter and brighter world…
