I'll see you in the afterlife
Floating above, above the satellites
Lighter than air, beyond a care
Tonight, my love, your time has finally come
I'll see you in the afterlife
Your time has come on a blazing white chariot
Crimson and greens, your wildest of dreams
Has come true, my love
For you, my love
Through the night sky, golden lacquer before my eyes
Porcelain wings, of angels who sing
Of a light, my love
Tonight, my love
And your time has come, my love
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, my love
Tonight, my love
Your time has come
On this dark night, a message from Morpheus
Crosses white sands, through the holiest of hands
It is said, my love
To your bed, my love
Through the night sky, the moaning of Cerberus
Cradles your sleep, to the infinite deep
On this eve, my love
Believe, my love
And your time has come,
My love,
Tonight, tonight,
Tonight, my love,
Tonight, my love,
Your time has come
I'll see you in the afterlife.
