This Time Will Pass
Karan Casey
I'll keep your story
I'll keep it for you
Fold it into my heart
Where no one will know
I'll hold your spirit
Like a sigh on the wind
Some rain on a flower
To remind me of you
Chorus:
I've seen the mountain
Her bulge in the sky
Her baby unborn
Heard her scalded heart cry
This time will pass
A wise man has told me
This time will pass
On all occasions
You must come quiet
To the door of my memory
I'm standing on briars
Out in the storm
Your song like the stars
It will be sung
So gather the brightness
Into your heart
(Chorus)
This time will pass
A wise man has told me
This time will pass
On all occasions
(Chorus)
