"Many Years In The Making" lyrics

These old feelings passing over our heads
Coloring the days strangely, coming through in waves
Pushing me down to the dark places
(Where) I don't want to fall back
I don't want to climb my way up freezing in the dark
It's making me sad and happy in a state of confusion
Take it as an invitation to finally play

Many years in the making
And for what? You might be asking
After all and everything
The words, the light, where do I start?

The broken heart, the holy path
The unborn child, where do I start?
Where do I stop? The fading hope
I must confess I wasn't sure we'd find ways to cope

With your voice fading and your weary eyes
Should I keep talking slowly should I improvise?
Should we keep on walking, should we start to run?
Are we already late, is it already gone?

These old feelings they keep passing me by
It's like half a dream and half a lie
And after many years in the making, here I sing
