Monday's Mourning Ministry - Time to Say Goodbye ~Sarah Brightman / Sands of Time... Time and the Child-Loss Griever




Monday's Mourning Ministry

Time to Say Goodbye

~Sarah Brightman

~

Sands of Time...

Time and the Child-Loss Griever







Time to Say Goodbye


~Sarah Brightman





When I am alone I sit and dream

And when I dream the words are missing

Yes I know that in a room so full of light

That all the light is missing



But I don't see you with me, with me

Close up the windows,

bring the sun to my room

Through the door you've opened


Close inside of me

the light you see

that you met in the darkness



Time to say goodbye

Horizons are never far

Would I have to find them alone

without true light of my own with you



I will go on ships over seas that I now know

No, they don't exist anymore

It's time to say goodbye



When you were so far away

I sit alone and dream of the horizon

Then I know that you are here with me, with me

Building bridges over land and sea

Shine a blinding light for you and me

To see, for us to be



Time to say goodbye

Horizons are never far

Would I have to find them alone

without true light of my own with you



I will go on ships over seas that I now know

No, they don't exist anymore

It's time to say goodbye



So with you I will go on ships over seas that I now know

No, they don't exist anymore

It's time to say goodbye



so with you I will go...


I will go ....



Time to Say Goodbye


~Sarah Brightman




When I am alone I sit and dream

And when I dream the words are missing

Yes I know that in a room so full of light

That all the light is missing



But I don't see you with me, with me

Close up the windows,

bring the sun to my room

Through the door you've opened


Close inside of me

the light you see

that you met in the darkness



Time to say goodbye

Horizons are never far

Would I have to find them alone

without true light of my own with you



I will go on ships over seas that I now know

No, they don't exist anymore

It's time to say goodbye



When you were so far away

I sit alone and dream of the horizon

Then I know that you are here with me, with me

Building bridges over land and sea

Shine a blinding light for you and me

To see, for us to be



Time to say goodbye

Horizons are never far

Would I have to find them alone

without true light of my own with you



I will go on ships over seas that I now know

No, they don't exist anymore

It's time to say goodbye



So with you I will go on ships over seas that I now know

No, they don't exist anymore

It's time to say goodbye



So with you I will go...


I will go ....

Original performance in Italian with lyrics and English translation of these lyrics found at http://www.puro.me :



Con te partiro


Time to Say Goodbye


Quando sono sola

sogno all'orizzonte

e mancan le parole,

si lo so che non c'e luce

in una stanza quando manca il sole,

se non ci sei tu con me, con me.

Sue le finestra

mostra a tutti il mio cuore

che hai accesso,

chiudi denreo me

la luce che

hai incontrato per strada.



Time to say goodbye. - Con te partiro.

Paesi che non ho mai

veduto a vissuto con te,

adesso si li vivro.

Con te partiro

su navi per mari

che, io lo so,

no, no, non esistono piu

It's time to say goodbye. - con te io li vivro.



Quando sei lontana

sogno all'orizzonte

e mancan le parole,

e io si lo so

che sei con me, con me,

tu mia luna tu sei qui con me,

mio sole tu sei qui con me,

con me, con me, con me.



Time to say goodbye. - Con te partiro.

Paesi che non ho mai

veduto e vissuto con te,

adesso si li vivro.

Con te partiro

su navi per mari

che, io lo so,

no, no, non esistono piu,



con te io li rivivro.

Con te partiro

su navi per mari

che, io lo so,

no, no, non esistono piu,

con te io li rivivro.

Con te partiro



io con te.

Sands of Time:


Time and the Child-Loss Griever





Sands of time sifting slow

Like they're not sure where to go:



"Can we just suspend in air

As we're stuck ~ paralyzed there ~ ?




We don't know which end's up,

Which way to go ~ life is stuck ~





If we do move ahead ~

We just pile up ~ like we're dead!




Can we go back to reclaim

Life as it was, before death came?



Tell us please, which way is up...

Each time we're turned, it's down, not up!"




Sands of time sift so slow

Like they're not sure where to go.





Time stands still, child-loss grievers know.




*****




May our Lord minister to you throughout this new year of 2011 as you continue to grieve your precious child.

Wednesday’s Woe - Nightmare - Stuck in Time





Wednesday’s Woe

Nightmare - Stuck in Time

What PTSD Looks Like...


I haven't been the same since I dreamed a couple of days ago - that I was with Merry Katherine in a swing - Merry Katherine was a toddler. But the swing was a type of child-like car. There were other toddlers in the room with us. They were in their own cars. I was driving Merry Katherine, and we were following her friends from room to room at a pretty fast speed. She said, "Can't we go faster?" and grabbed the control (like a Playstation-type conrol). She pushed the buttons, and we began to go really fast; it felt like flying to me, so I said, "No baby, we can't do this..." and then I awakened...

Once again, I felt out-of-control, like I had been pushed too far at her insistence and it was gonna be to her demise - I can 't seem to break out of this nightmare - She, helpless, and thinking like a child, I her mommy, the adult in the position supposed to help her, yet I was helpless to stop her... and it all led to her demise...

Much of my life seemed to be about handling that balance, allowing enough of a challenge for her, but not so much that it could put her in danger...yet she would always push the limits...and ultimately did so, to her sure demise...



Nightmare - Stuck in Time


My baby girl, so sweet to me,

19 years, had her with me.

Now, she has gone to Heaven...


But I? I'm stuck in a nightmare,

So my life's stuck in time...


Stuck in a nightmare

God, I can't get out -

My baby's in danger

I cant get her out...


When can I stop this Merry-go-round

That threw my poor baby down to the ground?






Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall...

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall


And now I can't throw a pillow down,

I can't break her fall down to the ground…


And with all the king's horses and with all the king's men

...We still can't put my baby back together again...



Jack and Jill ran up the hill to fetch a pail of water...

Jack fell down and broke his crown, and

Jill came tumbling after...



Stuck in a nursery rhyme

Stuck in time

My baby's not here with me

My life's stuck in time...


Stuck in a nightmare

God, I can't get out -

My baby's in danger

And I cant get her out...


Stuck in a nursery rhyme

When can I stop this Merry-go-round?

That threw my poor baby down to the ground?








My baby fell down and broke her crown,

And now I can't throw a pillow down,

To break her fall down to the ground...

And I can't put her back together again...


And I can't bring her back home to me again...


So I'm stuck in an endless nursery rhyme

That ends in senseless tragedy...

(What were those nursery rhymes telling me

when I was only 2 or 3,

sitting upon my Mother's knee?)

Nursery rhymes warn of life's senseless tragedy?


Stuck in a nightmare

God, I can't get out -

My baby's in danger

I cant get her out...


When can I stop this Merry-go-round

That threw my poor baby down to the ground?






I can't stop her fall.

I can't break her fall.

I can't stop this senseless tragedy,

But this was my baby who sat on my knee...

And now my baby's not here with me,


But my body's on alert, cannot forget.

Stuck in a panic, stuck in a sweat...

My baby's in danger

I must get her out...

Stuck in a senseless nursery rhyme,

So my life's stuck in time...


Stuck in a nightmare

God, I can't get out -

My baby's in danger

I cant get her out...


When can I stop this Merry-go-round

That threw my poor baby girl down to the ground?







Now, she has gone to Heaven,


But I?

I'm stuck in a nightmare,

So my life's stuck in time...


{How can so much of God's truth

be stuck in a nursery rhyme?}


Stuck in a nursery rhyme

Stuck in time

My baby's not here with me

My life's stuck in time...

Now, she has gone to Heaven,



But I?

I'm stuck in a nightmare,

So my life's stuck in time...
