I'll meet you again Where the shadows grow long And the sand sings soft whispers And the amber trees twist On an eternal Earth
You will find me again Standing in the river My rough bared feet drowning In the tiny slivers Of all those little dreams We were just too poor to nurture And far too young to waste
I'll meet you again In the sweetest late afternoon light With your heart so full of wonder And your callused hands so beautifully empty Your body so tired of wandering
And as the red sky says its last goodbyes, my dear To all his precious children So cold and so small We will hold each other close so close As the last of ourselves Withers and bursts into bloom Into life Dear Life So tragically short
