Secret Sisters Hold You Dear
[Verse 1]
To the lover of my youth, the solace for my age
My protection from what harms
You will reach for me on our darkest days
And I will come home to your arms
[Chorus]
And I will hold you dear
While my shadow's long and my eyes are clear
I know these days will pass away
So I will hold you dear
[Verse 2]
Oh, blessed mother and the father I adore
There is time upon your faces
I will cherish you 'til you leave me for your eternal holy places
[Chorus]
And I will hold you dear
While my shadow's long and my eyes are clear
I know these days will pass away
So I will hold you dear
[Verse 3]
You're a part of me and the one I love
The sweetest years won't tarry
You will reach for me when my arms are full
And I will lay down the things I carry
[Chorus]
And I will hold you dear
While my shadow's long and my eyes are clear
I know these days will pass away
So I will hold you dear
[Outro]
I know these days will pass away
So I will hold you dear
