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
I did know one of us would die
Now you are gone and I sit here and cry.
How my heart sings
