Will you say when I`m gone away
`my lover came to me and we`d lay
in rooms unfamiliar but until now`
Will you say to them when I`m gone
`I loved your son for his sturdy arms
we both learned to cradle then live without`
Will you say when I`m gone away
your father`s body was judgement day
we both dove and rose to the riverside
Will you say to me when I`m gone
`your face has faded but lingers on
because light strikes a deal
with each coming night`
