As your soul drips from the plate
To the floor where she is standing
Her eyes lit by the fire
From the torch you were burning

Many years brought many tears
And many more will soon be arriving
But I'll drink this final drop
To enter your front door

Gone are the days when I poured from the rain
Where once, once washed a man going down life's drain
In time, in time you will see just what you mean to me
For I have let an angel clip my wings

Come back, young volunteer
For your war, now it is over
Lay down your blackened gun
Not another bad word spoken

Come tell of all you've seen
To the soul you're no longer killing
And rest your weary voice
The last battle song has cried

Gone are the days when I poured from the rain
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net }
Where once, once washed a man going down life's drain
In time, in time you will see just what you mean to me
For I have let an angel clip my wings

Oh, an angel clipped my wings from the back of this broken dream
So no ground need ever break my fall again
For I return to sing this tune
From the back of a broken dream

Time won't hurry back, time won't stall
Time to forget the past, brush the cobwebs from the wall
For I survived to sing this tune
From the back of a broken dream

For an angel clipped my wings from the back of this broken dream
So no ground need ever break my fall again
For I return to sing this tune
From the back of a broken dream
