[Verse 1] Sit enthroned in white grandeur But tired And shift a wisp of wayward silver hair From your eyes I'd never seen you unkempt before As you whisper darling close the door Well, how have I not made a note of every word You ever said And time is not on our side but I'll pretend that it's alright She says the Lord has a plan But admits it's pretty hard to understand [Chorus] Before you leave You must know you are beloved And before you leave Remember I was with you [Verse 2] Are you afraid However could you not be In this rosy light This is strange I feel a hand come through the mirror Pointing at the light Point at the light we never see As you put your feathered arms over me [Chorus] Before you leave You must know you are beloved And before you leave Remember I was with you And as you leave I won't hold you back beloved [Bridge] We'll sit and talk the stars down from the sky And I'll not forget the chaos in your eyes love [Chorus] And as you leave You must know you are beloved And as you leave I can see the wild has come for you And as you leave I won't hold you back beloved And as you leave See my children playing at your feet
