Seven Arrows Lyrics

I saw the seven arrows flying by
I saw Heaven's angels up on high
With their wings outstretched to fill the sky

Right before my eyes I watched the arrows strike his side
Taking him beyond this world into the afterlife
Never thought I'd live to see the day
When a friend of mine so close was taken so far away

I suppose that death is part of life and the fact is life goes on
Even when those dear to you are now forever gone
Lay his body down to rest under the bracken fern
You were like a father taught me everything I've learned

As I lay upon the earth in the darkness of the night
A bed of moss beneath, I cast my gaze onto the sky
Never thought I'd live to see the day
When a friend of mine so close was taken so far away
