Rose of Sharyn

I've actually been listening to this song for a while. And I really like it, musically. But then today I got curious about the lyrics, so I checked it out.

And to be honest, I was a bit surprised. I don't really know what I expected, but I guess it has just been a while since I last found songs with really good lyrics. (Except from Blackbird by Alter Brigde)

The song is about the loss of a loved one, but it speaks about it in such a beautiful way that I honestly didn't expect from a song like this. Even though you might not like the same genre of music as me, you should still read these lyrics (consider it a poem).

Killswitch Engage; Rose Of Sharyn

Numb and broken,
Here I stand alone,
Wondering what were
The last words I said to you
Hoping, praying that I'll find a way
To turn back time,
Can I turn back time?

What would I give to behold.
The smile, the face of love,
You never left me,
The rising sun
Will always speak your name.

Numb, i'm broken
Here i stand alone.
Wondering the words,
The last words i said to you
It won't be long
We'll meet again...

What would i give, to behold
The smile, the face of love?
You never left me
The rising sun
Will always speak your name

It won't be long, we'll meet again
Your memory is never passing
It won't be long, we'll meet again
My love for you is everlasting.

I mourn for those who never knew you
I mourn for those who never knew you

It won't be long, we'll meet again
Your memory is never passing
It won't be long, we'll meet again
My love for you is everlasting.

It won't be long, we'll meet again..
It won't be long, we'll meet again..
It won't be long, we'll meet again..
It won't be long, we'll meet again..

(If you want to hear the songs, just youtube them. ^^)
