Dear Companions, now and ever
Here we take the time to measure
All the joy and sorrow in
As the tide is rushing in
For this time we have together
We'll live on in songs we sing
In the garden where we gather
And it's telling me surrender
and it's willing me to hold
See your sister build a lantern,
hear your brother's violin
For this time we have together,
we'll live on in songs we sing
I will meet you in the winter
Scattered voices moving close
On the shoreline where we shelter
In the way we've come to know
You'll be near me, you'll be near me
In whatever fate will bring
For this time we have together
We'll live on in songs we sing
Dear Companions, now and ever
We'll live on in songs we sing
Dear Companions, now and ever
We'll live on in songs we sing
Dear companions, now and ever
We'll live on in songs we sing
Dear companions, now and ever
We'll live on in songs we sing
Dear companions, now and ever
We'll live on in the songs we sing
Dear companions, now and ever
We'll live on in the songs we sing
Dear companions, now and ever
We'll live on in songs we sing
For this time we have together
We'll live on in songs we sing you
