Our Time...
Be still my darling, and
hold my hand for me...
The sounds are getting
quieter, and things are hard to see.
I'm not afraid, like I
thought I'd be, though I see your weeping so...
If it were in my power,
I'd be the last to go.
But mourn not for my passing,
rather think upon the day...
When we shall stand again
together, and I shall touch your face.
So in the nights that feel
alone, and you need me to be there...
Go to where we used to
meet, where once I touched your hair.
Look upon the heavens, and
try to see our star...
You know that I'll be watching
you, I'll never be too far.
And when the cold winds
blow your hair, and mist falls on your face...
Stand and whisper to the
wind, "I love you" from our place.
When your time to meet me
comes, and things are hard to see...
You'll feel my hand, and
hear my voice, beside you I will be.
Silently we'll walk along,
the paths we used to walk...
And forever in the soft
night winds, together we will talk.
