"Candlelit Silence" Lyrics

I stood before you, your eyes were closed as you laid still.
I reached out to you, my grasp was met with an icy chill.
I knew this would be the last time that we would meet.
Even though you spoke no words, I felt you there with me.

The candle flickered with a lambent grace.
My hand in yours for a final embrace.
I cast my mind back to the glory days.
I whispered goodbye and gently kissed your face.

Though it was devoid of all emotion.
I felt your loving care within that moment.
For years you watched over me,
and now you will forever live on in my memories dear friend, dear brother.

The candle flickered with a lambent grace.
My hand in yours for a final embrace.
I cast my mind back to the glory days.
I whispered goodbye and gently kissed your face.

Rest in peace
