about

The song is dedicated to the loving memory of my mother.

lyrics

I am surrounded by life
and the world ahead
electric light draw me closer
to the darkness, oh my lord

you gave me true love
till the day you left
i was afraid of losing you
but you can never lose what you had

who can hold back the night
who can keep on faith
when our time will come
you can't never hold back the night

the other side is waiting for me
i ´ll be patient and pray
my mother is waiting for me
she will be right by my side

I was wounded and left behind
but when my bleeding stopped
I felt her hand on my wound
and her faith in my lost soul

who can hold back the night
who can keep on faith
when our time will come
you can't never hold back the night

On days I can't remember
I will believe I loved
Dreams I can't remember
I will believe I dreamed


she can hold back the night
she keeps me on faith
i will never lose my love
and her true love for me
