Description
They're leaving me;they always do.
I can't hold them to me
against their will,
or they will come to hate me
who loves them more than life.
They're leaving me;
they always do.
There's nothing I can say
that will make them stay.
They're leaving me;
they always do.
My lovely ravens will
fly so high to guide my life.
But they'll never recall
the gentle affection
enduring love,
constant joy.
Once again,
quoth the raven,
"Nevermore."
Nevermore
will I witness great joys
and deep sorrows.
Nevermore
will I see their faces
alight with laughter.
Nevermore
will I hold them close
and pray they won't leave.
For I see what
I couldn't see before:
they were entrusted to me
for just a short while.
But that doesn't still
the shattering deep in my chest,
nor the pain deep in my soul.
I love you,
my sweet ravens.
Don't forget me
as you soar to heights unknown.
