Lyrics: Hunter's Song, Revised

(Verse 1)
We can hear the whisper of your soul again
Peace has come to the war inside
Your spirit has gone home again
No more tears from an angel's eyes

(Chorus)
It's time now you've gone away
From the sickness that's been holding you down
I know you are a miracle of the world
No more pain for you to hide
Your beauty is the light

(Verse 2)
You are the wind in the trees again
The ones you love hold you inside
All of your demons have fallen away
No more tears from an angel's eyes

(Chorus)
It's time now you've gone away
From the sickness that's been holding you down
We all know you are a miracle of the world
No more dreams to set aside
Your beauty is the light

(Verse 3)
It's ok to go back home
Can you hear him calling you
It's ok to go back home
Listen for his voice

It's ok to go home

Note: This song was rewritten in the week prior to Hunter's passing. Jules and Dami came to Ithaca packed for 2 days for a gig at The Center and, after hearing how rapidly he was failing, ended up staying in town for the 2 weeks he clung to life. They then had the opportunity to perform the song at his memorial service. Photos of this song being revised - a very emotional time while we awaited the dreaded phone call - are available on the Random Images page.
