Come bless the child one more time
Dead to the world, alive for the journey
I was weak, yet not unblessed
Why is it the deadliest sin to love as I loved you?
And witnessed the beauty of the beast
Come bless the child one more time
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Why has all the laughter ceased?
My tale is the most bitter truth
I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison drop in this cup of man
Time pays us but with earth and dust and a dark, silent grave
Soon to be freed from care, from human pain
I was born amidst the purple waterfalls
Where have all the feelings gone?
How can I ever feel again?
Think of me long enough to make a memory

Remember my child, without innocence the cross is only iron
Gone back in time to bless the child
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Come bless the child one more time
One night I dreamt a white rose withering
To drink it is to follow the left hand path
Now unblessed, homesick in time
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Hope is only an illusion, and Ocean Soul's nothing but a name
I dreamt all of my future, relived my past
Gone back in time to bless the child
The Child bless thee and keep thee forever
A newborn drowning, a lifetime loneliness
Given the chance would I return?
Think of me long enough to make a memory
