My long forgotten cloistered sleep (unreleased work of Xenosaga)

my long forgotten cloistered sleep (unreleased work of Xenosaga) is a track in A Missing Year. Virgil's lament from the music of Xenosaga Episode III is a remix of it, and Song of Nephilim (Xenosaga III ver.) and Ars Nova use its melody as a motif.

It plays during the ending scene of chapter 6, during Shion's final narration, and continues through the credits.

The lyrics were written by Yuki Kajiura and sung by Emily Bindiger, and are as follows:

In my long forgotten cloistered sleep You and I were resting close in peace Was it just the dreaming of my heart? Now I'm crying, don't know why

''Where do all the tears come from? (To my eyes)'' Could no one ever dry up this spring? If you find me crying in the dark Please call my name from the heart

Sing with me a tiny autumn song With the melodies of the days gone by Dress my body all in flowers white So no mortal eye can see

''Where have all my memories gone? (And lost)'' Should I roam again up yonder hill? I can never rest my soul until You call my name, you call my name from the heart
