Curtain of the Night

It's the curtain of the night
Now drawn closed and tight
No sunshine filters through
It is the wall
Separating
Today from all tomorrows
A new journey has begun
A new song will be sung
I cannot share this song with you
I must travel alone
To all that is new
I will take with me
My memories
Of the life
That we have shared
And if I can I'll keep watch
From up above somewhere.
