Nothing comes or goes without a shadow
Somewhere in the soul you hold the candle
Let the sorrow go it's half the battle
Down the hole you go to where you are

It has been an honor and privilege to go down the hole with you. As Winter Blooms, we close the show with immense gratitude for your support, cheers, and donations. Thank you for being a part of Alice by Heart.
