lyrics

She makes her way to the tomb
The grief it consumes her spirit
It’s just another ritual
From long before to revisit
The others wouldn’t pay it mind
Afraid of what they’d find if they’d let it

And time….. it’s always behind
But this time, she’s the first to arrive

He runs because he heard the news
Could it be true, what he’s hearing
It’s the shame that’s kept him gone this long
Will he still belong in his fearing
Sometimes the hope of all our dreams
Can be found it seems in what is not there

And love…. So fleeting inside
But now it’s the first to arrive

It’s not that everything’s okay
Only that the day is dawning

And now….. a new light shines
Because it's the first to arrive
