The Last Journey

I am looking at you for the last time And I know you can't stay You are moving to a better place So far away Always silent, a world behind your eyes A soul so deep I'm mystified Memories strong, I'll never lose them Music was your language They can steal away your life forever But they can't steal your dreams A dark cloud's on my heaven So far from me Alone, without you near me The sorrow's deep in my bones Through the pain I know you're gone But I will carry on Time has come – and time is gone Kingdom come – all alone Time has come – the last journey Your spirit lives on in tunes of steel We shared a dream, a common goal Something deep within our soul A feeling cold, reach inside A way to keep control We rehearsed, then we grew together From merely boys to full grown men The loss of you will hurt forever Sorrow is the only friend Time has come – and time is gone Kingdom come – all alone Time has come – the last journey You may be gone but the metal never dies - never, ever You flew away with the angels Soaring high into the night Bringing thunder to the heavens Metal to the sky Spitting flame, spitting fire Burning up the clouds Make your spirit fly higher No more shackles now Time has come – and time is gone Kingdom come – all alone Time has come – the last journey You may be gone but your spirit never dies Time has come – and time is gone Kingdom come – all alone Time has come – the last journey The last journey The last journey The last journey
