In life’s wave of ebb and flow, there’s mountains high, and valley… Where eagles soar in endless skies… and natures wonders Grace our eyes… Flowers bloom on summers day,
Awaken, precious flower, For your buds are laved in dew Like beads upon your thorns, in the morning day of new For in your sweet essence,
Breath of beauty, smell of myrr… For all my love it does stir That of which my heart awakes My lips of red softly quake Your touch be, as gentle spring
O what love is this; that I am still so in love with th… Hath not the empty years passed; enough to set my heart free? O thou love by the undying sea,
I hear the melody of midnight, and the song of the whippoorwill I pray for you my sweet darling, as the silence of night stands sti… My tears flow an ebbing stream
O sins of secrets and smiling girt… you raked the dirt with your lies… You shadowed the mountains and bir… lighting the night with your painf… You impregnated my mind with fallo…
I had a bleeding heart of pain, that only you could heal It was my hope, a reoccurring drea… one I thought you might could feel I cried those tears of many years,

Over the moon shines a beam, A resplendent heavenly light Within it’s hue I see my dreams, beyond the stars in yonder night One journey ends, another begins,
I’ll n’er look into your eyes agai… but only in dreams enshrined, There by winters gate, where we drank forbidden wine You hold me in cabin light
