Longest night, longest morning Longest day, the hardest time When you lose part of your being When you lose part of your mind All is dark, all is empty Torn away half of your soul You ask why, no one can tell you And the void begins to grow I made it through the tunnel And I came out the other side I made it through the tunnel And I came out the other side I look up, I look skyward And a cool way to heaven's gate And then I know and it gives comfort The tunnel's end is now in sight The tunnel's long, the tunnel's dark I lost my way, but now I'm home And you ask why, no one can tell you It's just the way the tunnel goes
