"Suspended In Heaven" lyrics

"Suspended In Heaven"

Mother is gone, her journey's unending
She's leaving this shore for the sea of all-knowing
She's gone on to find where the Gods hide in waitin'
Silently calling her children back to them

Mother is gone, her journey's unending
I see her pass by in the night sky a-glowing
And she'll see the blue of the oceans rising
Tides of a teardrop, suspended in heaven

Mother is gone, her body's at rest
Her spirit is on its heavenly quest
The sun and the moon, just two points of light
A beacon from home, an anchor in flight

Mother is gone, her journey's unending
I see her pass by in the night sky a-glowing
And she'll see the blue of the oceans rising
Tides of a teardrop, suspended in heaven

Mother is gone, her soul climbed the mountain
And led to the stars just a-singin' and shoutin'
She lives in the dust that shimmers and shines
Follows the pathway no mortal can find

Mother is gone, her journey's unending
I see her pass by in the night sky a-glowing
And she'll see the blue of the oceans rising
Tides of a teardrop, suspended in heaven
