Song Of Redemption - Woods of Ypres
I am not that good anymore and maybe I never was
But I'll play my heart out for you one more time
For in my old age all I can do is play for you
A song from my youth
So let me share my gift with you once more
Just like we had in the past so many times before
My hands may shake my muscles are weak
I'm not strong as I used to be
But still I will play for you and leave you with a song
For when you have music you're never alone
Let me share my gift with you once more
Just like we had in the past so many times before
The song of redemption is all that I am
For in the end the music is all that I have
And though it feels incomplete the deadline has come for me
I must present to you my masterpiece
For time is short in my condition the song of redemption
Will be the final composition from this tired musician
Please give me your attention
And I will remedy this silent tension
And I hope that you will remember
I hope the memories will leave a lasting impression
Of me when I'm gone gone after I am gone
I don't need to concentrate I can close my eyes
And though you'll hear this song but once
I've rehearsed it a thousand times
But what will you say after I'm done
After I've attempted to play the song of redemption
And what will you say after I'm gone
After I've attempted to play the song of redemption
