The eternal journey has just begun
The death toll strikes and rites are sung
The fleeting shadow of life moves on
And leaves a vacuum for the grieving sons
In times of sorrow,in times of pain
The hollow feeling still remains
The parting loss causes quite a strain
As people watch the moving train
But through it all,the heart restrains
From breaking down and cannot explain
Why we shout and cry all in vain,
Yet hope that her journey to Heaven is certain
