Lyrics
The Embers Hey, where can he be found? He sleeps without a sound Resting underground Hey, what sweet sorrow rings At the end of suffering Hallelujah it’s morning And who will sing the requiem Of the night that passed away Rain is just the sunshine Where the broken hearted stay Another storm passed through It doesn’t mean it’s all the same Not everyone sees tomorrow Who saw their last yesterday Hey, where can he be found? He sleeps without a sound Resting underground Hey, what sweet sorrow rings At the end of suffering Hallelujah it’s morning And who will sing the requiem Of the life that passed away The last flicker gasped and dwindled When sorrow filled the flame The morning sun will dry the earth But some nights can’t be erased Some things aren’t here tomorrow That were here yesterday Hey, where can he be found? He sleeps without a sound Resting underground Hey, what sweet sorrow rings At the end of suffering Hallelujah it’s morning Well I will sing the requiem Of my friend that passed away His light flickered and was smothered Like an ocean to a flame But the dawn it calls us to rise our eyes To the future and later days And to always remember Those that did not reach today Hey, where can he be found? He sleeps without a sound Resting underground Hey, what sweet sorrow rings At the end of suffering Hallelujah it’s morning Hey
