Did we think that one day we would die ?

Did we think that one day we would die
That energy and strength would always be ?
Now you are gone and hope is no ally

From the Cleveland Hills sailed butterflies
Bee filled heather  made for you and me
Did we think that one day we would die?

A moment of eternity goes by
From Langadale Pikes we see the Irish Sea
Now you are gone and my heart asks me,Why?

On the road from Tees-side we would drive
Admire the shape of hills, their pageantry
Did we know that one day we would die?

We might die but  Love  has its own time
No tears   should  wash my heart  this savagely
Now you are gone and hope is no ally

Oh, let  green nature  take me for its tree
Festooned with  blossom and with poetry
Did know that one day we would die
Now you are gone and I sit here and cry.
