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 we walked upon those were good days
|

|
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 years
|
When other lips will kiss her eyes a million miles beyond the moon that's where she is
|
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
|
