After all the tears have fallen
And the final sigh has been heard
She burns a candle in her silence
And though her spirit cries
She cannot speak a word

Time goes on
On and on
When the night falls down
She sings her song

Take me to the temple of your soul
And lay by body down to rest
Up high, to the other side
To walk the paths of gold
Take me to the temple of your soul

She wore a frown on Sunday mornings
She wore her addictions like a badge of shame
Live a life of no convictions
And when she cried for mercy
Her saviour never came

Take me to the temple of your soul
And lay by body down to rest
Up high, to the other side
To walk the paths of gold
Take me to the temple of your soul
