about

Mary the mother mourns her son as he faces the dark night of the soul alone.

lyrics

I watch through tears as they turn you to the crowd
And cries of hate and anger fill the air
And all my fears fall upon me like a shroud
I weep for you as I see you standing there

I long to run to your side to dry your tears
And try to make the nightmare go away
And oh my son, to protect you from their jeers
I’d die for you if I could only find a way
.
Oh my son, my son where have you gone? This is a path which I can not follow.
My Son, my son what have you done? This is a path that I can not tread.

I remember when, with a love immense and wild
You’d dance with joy just to see the sun arise
But now and then as I watched you as a child
I’d see the look that I see now in your eyes.

Oh my son, my son where have you gone? This is a path which I can not follow.
My Son, my son what have you done? This is a path that I can not tread.

Oh child of mine at the crossroads on your own
I’ve always known you would come to this at last
For you must shine in the darkness all alone
A light to men until the night has passed

Oh my son, my son where have you gone? This is a path which I can not follow.
Shine on shine till battle’s won, be strong my son in the dark night of your soul.
