Lyrics
The Raven's Lament
[Verse]
Oh raven of mine
Where art thou gone?
Has darkness claimed you
A silence withdrawn? (ooh-yeah)
No more can I hear your mournful cries
Tell me
Dear raven
Where do you fly?
[Verse 2]
I hear a knocking
A tapping at my door
Is it you
Dear raven
Back forevermore? (ooh-yeah)
Your beak pecks at my heart
My very soul
Why the despair in your eyes
Yet hope in your wings?
[Chorus]
But I won't let go
I won't let go
I'll follow the raven wherever it may go
Through darkness and despair
I'll stay by its side
For the raven's sorrow
I'll no longer hide (ooh-yeah)
[Verse]
Will you carry my burdens to the unknown?
Dear raven
Are you the one I've been waiting for? (waiting for)
I should tremble
But your grace is mesmerizing
Take me
Oh raven
Guide me through the darkest hour (oh-yeah)
[Verse 2]
In this world of shadows
Will you set me free?
Dear raven
With eyes as deep as the abyss (oh-oh)
In your presence
Fear gives way to fascination
Lead me through the depths of despair
Bring me back to life (oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus]
Wings of the raven
Take me higher than before
Through the storm and the silence
To the promised shore
Your feathers embrace
As I journey alone
Oh
Raven
Be my guide
Bring me back home (ooh-yeah)
Oh raven of mine
Where art thou gone?
Has darkness claimed you
A silence withdrawn? (ooh-yeah)
No more can I hear your mournful cries
Tell me
Dear raven
Where do you fly?
[Verse 2]
I hear a knocking
A tapping at my door
Is it you
Dear raven
Back forevermore? (ooh-yeah)
Your beak pecks at my heart
My very soul
Why the despair in your eyes
Yet hope in your wings?
[Chorus]
But I won't let go
I won't let go
I'll follow the raven wherever it may go
Through darkness and despair
I'll stay by its side
For the raven's sorrow
I'll no longer hide (ooh-yeah)
[Verse]
Will you carry my burdens to the unknown?
Dear raven
Are you the one I've been waiting for? (waiting for)
I should tremble
But your grace is mesmerizing
Take me
Oh raven
Guide me through the darkest hour (oh-yeah)
[Verse 2]
In this world of shadows
Will you set me free?
Dear raven
With eyes as deep as the abyss (oh-oh)
In your presence
Fear gives way to fascination
Lead me through the depths of despair
Bring me back to life (oh-oh-oh)
[Chorus]
Wings of the raven
Take me higher than before
Through the storm and the silence
To the promised shore
Your feathers embrace
As I journey alone
Oh
Raven
Be my guide
Bring me back home (ooh-yeah)
