| [00:16.82] |
Realising a form out of stone, |
| [00:23.49] |
Set hands moving. |
| [00:27.20] |
Roan shaped his heart, |
| [00:30.79] |
Through his working hands. |
| [00:32.78] |
Worked to mold his passion into clay, |
| [00:37.41] |
Like the sun. |
| [00:41.79] |
In his room, his lady, |
| [00:46.00] |
She would dance and sing so completely. |
| [00:51.28] |
"So be still," he now cries, |
| [00:54.40] |
"I have time, oh let clay transform thee so." |
| [01:08.36] |
In the deep cold of night, |
| [01:11.46] |
Winter calls, he cries "Don't deny me!" |
| [01:16.78] |
For his lady, deep her illness. |
| [01:20.60] |
Time has caught her, |
| [01:23.86] |
And will for all reasons take her. |
| [01:25.90] |
In the still light of dawn, she dies. |
| [01:30.10] |
Helpless hands soul revealing. |
| [01:34.45] |
Like leaves we touch, we learn. |
| [01:39.40] |
We once knew the story. |
| [01:45.51] |
As winter calls he will starve, |
| [01:49.83] |
All but to see the stone be life. |
| [02:13.95] |
Now Roan, no more tears. |
| [02:19.45] |
Set to work his strength, |
| [02:21.64] |
So transformed him. |
| [02:24.75] |
Realizing a form out of stone, |
| [02:29.70] |
His work so absorbed him. |
| [02:32.88] |
Could she hear him? |
| [02:35.23] |
Could she see him? |
| [02:37.11] |
All aglow was his room, |
| [02:39.75] |
Dazed in this light. |
| [02:41.71] |
He would touch her, |
| [02:43.43] |
He would hold her. |
| [02:45.85] |
Laughing as they danced, |
| [02:47.76] |
Highest colors touching others. |
| [02:50.35] |
Did her eyes at the turn of the century, |
| [02:54.24] |
Tell me plainly. |
| [02:58.22] |
How we'll meet, how we'll love, |
| [03:01.16] |
Oh, let life so transform me. |
| [03:06.78] |
Like leaves we touch, we dance. |
| [03:11.49] |
We once knew the story. |
| [03:17.52] |
As autumn called and we both, |
| [03:22.61] |
Remembered all those many years ago. |
| [03:35.10] |
I'm sure we know. |
| [05:20.66] |
Was the sign in the day with a touch, |
| [05:24.18] |
As I kiss your fingers. |
| [05:28.39] |
We walk hands in the sun, |
| [05:31.10] |
Memories when we're young, |
| [05:33.14] |
Love lingers so. |
| [05:37.70] |
Was it sun through the haze, |
| [05:48.20] |
That made all your looks, |
| [05:50.22] |
As warm as moonlight? |
| [05:53.64] |
As a pearl deep your eyes, |
| [05:56.53] |
Tears have flown away, |
| [05:58.49] |
All the same light. |
| [06:01.64] |
Did her eyes at the turn of the century, |
| [06:06.34] |
Tell me plainly. |
| [06:10.23] |
When we meet, how we'll look, |
| [06:13.70] |
As we smile time will leave me clearly. |
| [06:19.13] |
Like leaves we touch, we see, |
| [06:24.28] |
We will know the story. |
| [06:29.42] |
As autumn calls we'll both remember, |
| [06:36.12] |
All those many years ago. |
