For the Remnant (Ove Ritola)

A stranger at my bedside My perception leaves me tied Locked out beyond myself But I felt it was you You know I appreciate Every moment of clarity I get Every second inside my mind But now I've run out of time So please hear me now and hear me good Help me become understood Recount all the names of who I've loved And forward these words Cry for a day Or cry for two But don't forget to carry on Remember all the good 'Cause the good will never change Not even without me around Let me live in your heart And let yourself off the hook 'Cause my baby done good And there's nothing I'm more proud of Than the bloodline we share It's everything
