Soul Chamber

As I ride off into battle,
To await my victory,
Your face is all that matters,
As it swims in front of me.

Lost in all the memories,
Of the days of long ago,
I know we'll be together,
Before my body grows too cold.

I am caught up in the raging,
And the battle's blood and gore.
I can feel my heartbeat fading,
My body feels no more.

But my mind is lost already,
To the shining silver gates.
I feel my sword hand steady,
But my spirit cries to wait.

The battle's almost over,
The darkness swims in place.
I'm going to meet my lover,
Again to see her face.

In the halls of great Valhalla,
Where the warriors wait to fight,
I saw my lover crying,
And awoke to pitch-black night.

I know my life's not over,
As I dreamed in vain it'd be.
I wait among the clover,
Til they come to rescue me.
