The soil is cold beneath my hands
I watch the shadows paint the lands
I lay you down where wildflowers grow
And let the quiet water flow
Sleep now my dearest friend Where the heavy branches bend
The sky will hold your weary name
And I will keep our sacred flame
The wind is carrying a sigh
A final dance across the sky
I walk back down the lonely hill
But your gentle peace remains here
still
Sleep now my dearest friend
Where the heavy branches bend
The sky will hold your weary name
And I will keep our sacred flame
