Black Robe

Another light is burning out Another candle's gone out The wax has maybe just run out For some the winds just way too fast oh Some leaves are falling in spring this year Some roots will dry in the rain It may not always make sense to me Some will be thankful today Lay your hand in his Let him take you away I will take care of the rest oh I will let you fade away I will let you fade away His black robe contrasting all the whites Doing his rounds with us Not letting us know what he knows Just doing it at his time oh Take a break with us You've been working all day I will take care of the rest oh I will let them fade away Come, take their hands in yours Won't you take them away I will take care of the rest oh I will let them fade away Another light is burning out Another candle's gone out The wax has maybe just run out For some the winds just a bit too strong oh Some leaves are falling in spring this year Some roots will dry in the rain It may not always make sense to me Some will be thankful today Lay your hand in his Let him take you away I will take care of the rest I will let you fade away Your black robe contrasting all the whites Doing your rounds with us Not giving ideas of what you know Just doing it at your time oh Take a break with us You been working all day I will take care of the rest I will let them fade away Take their hand in yours Wont you take them away I will take care of the rest I will let them fade away I will let them fade away Don't let yourself fade away I will let them fade away I will let them fade away
