Ode to John

The night is cold

But now we have to go

The bundle in yours arms I know

It weighs the world

The star that shines

Will be our only light

The moon can't face the sight

Of our child alone

All I ask

Is the joy we had

All I ask

We remember that

Remember back

Those days in Sonny's lands

We worked until our blackened hands

Wouldn't wash away

If we knew then

A night like this we'd spend

If we knew then

Those tears we'd shed

All I ask

Is the joy we had

All I ask

We remember that

All I see

For eternity

All I see

Is beneath this tree

  

The night is cold

But now we have to go

The bundle in yours arms I know

It weighs the world

All I see

For eternity

All I see

Is beneath this tree
