Death came to me like it comes to us all
Swiftly, silently, like an axe about to fall
Listen to the raven’s song
My song to you, my distant call
Don’t let your grief last long
There will come a time when you will see me at dawn
I will be calling for you, singing the raven’s song
Wait for me love, wait
I’ll bring you to heaven’s gate
Follow me love, before it’s too late
The raven’s song, the raven’s song
I’ll be singing it to you all night long
Listen and remember
That one cold December
Remember how I told you I loved you so
Remember you saying you’d never let me go
Remember the day of my death
Ten years after the day we first met
It won’t be long
Before you’ll be back where you belong
But promise me love, promise me
That you won’t forget the raven’s song
