[Verse 1]
Hold me now
In the darkness
Hold me now
In the crossroad fire
Hold me now
In the coming storm
Bring the north star down

Count every ghost
In the prairie dawn
Shepherd girl of the afterworld
Leave each night
A new horizon
Finally calls me in

[Verse 2]
An unforgotten thing
Among forgotten things
Grace and hope I've lived between
For so long
Only for my little queen

When I have strayed
In the wilderness
First comes silence
Then you ring the bell
You can have my heart
But not my secret
Shepherd girl of the afterworld
Shepherd girl of the afterworld
