opeth - to bid you farewell lyrics

i am awaiting the sunrise
gazing modestly through the coldest morning
once it came you lied
embracing us over autumn's proud treetops

i stand motionless
in a parade of falling rain
you voice i cannot hear
as i am falling again

devotion eludes
and in sadness i lumber
in my own ashes i am standing without a soul
she wept and whispered: "i know..."

we walked into the night
am i to bid you farewell?

why can't you see that i try
when every tear i shed
is for you?
