With night fading fast   Let us walk to keep the time away   My heart is so cold   I know what is right   What to do when all has passed away   Will you still stay strong?   Steadfast when will has gone   Steadfast when will has gone      [chorus]   As here we stand hand in hand   In this funeral night   Can't I see that we both will fall   Can't you see my dry tears   On this skin so cold   Even now the Reaper comes   Though you are here I am afraid   I am afraid, my love      With night fading fast   Warmth is but a memory of youth   As our day grows old   I can't bear to part   With so many things I hold so dear   But all things must fall   How well I know the grave   How well I know the grave      [chorus]      We must stand strong   And face our fears until the end   'Til the time when truth is found,   When at last we can rest      [chorus]
