Back to Heaven's Light

Once in a dream
I saw you telling me
That you've traveled in the dark
Just to find that little spot
How you'd settle for a light
In the vastness of the night

Then I saw some tears were coming from you eyes
As you said you'd found your paradise
And I began to ask you,
"Why you have to cry?"

And now it's a dreamlike
I hear you telling me
It's been such a perfect grace
It's been such a perfect place
To be in my heart at last
And have angels singing you a song

Now it's time for me to say goodbye to those eyes
To let you go so sleeplike
And hear you whisper,
"Why we have to cry?"

It's a journey, you said
An illusion of a journey
Now you can't see where it ends and where it starts

It's our life and our love that you wish to have
Where you wish to be
In this time and spark of memory, mortality

What's left for me to do is to welcome you home
Back to my heart, back to heaven's light
Back to my heart, and we're never apart

"We started the same journey. But, this has been an illusion of a journey, for it didn't have a start and didn't have an end. We will just find one another again, and reside in one another's heart. It's a circle we can not beat. Might as well just enjoy the game..."
