Time to come home

Sixty eight and a heart of gold
Whithin two days asleep and cold
We'll never know why you left
It feels unfair, it feels like theft

Chorus
You carried all sorrows
And burdens on your own
Your God said: "It's time
Time to come home"

The river flows day and night
We come and go like an eternal tide
New born babies and worn out lives
You were there so they could thrive

Chorus

You had a dream to build a place
To give the dying a last embrace
You gave your all, everything you got
Now you are gone but your dreams are not

Chorus

for Tineke Breider
