|
The last time I saw her face, her eyes were bathed in starlight and her hair hung long |
|
The last time she spoke to me, her lips were like the scented flowers inside a rain-drenched forest |
|
But that was so long ago that I can scarcely feel the way I felt before |
|
And if time could heal the wounds, I would tear the threads away that I might bleed some more |
|
The last time I walked with her |
|
Her laughter was the steeple bells |
|
That ring to greet the morning sun |
|
A voice that called to everyone |
|
To love the ground she walked upon |
|
Those were good day |
|
The last time I held her hand, her touch was autumn, spring and summer, and winter too |
|
The last time I let go of her, she walked a way into the night |
|
I lost her in the misty streets, a thousand months, a thousand miles |
|
When other lips will kiss her eyes |
|
A million miles beyond the moon, that's where she is |
|
But that was so long ago that I can scarcely feel the way I felt before |
|
And if time could heal the wounds, I would tear the threads away that I might bleed some more |
|
The last time I saw her face, her eyes were bathed in starlight and she walked alone |
|
The last time she kissed my cheek |
|
Her lips were like the wilted leaves |
|
Upon the autumn covered hills |
|
Resting on the frozen ground |
|
The seeds of love lie cold and still |
|
Beneath a battered marking stone |
|
It lies forgotten |
