[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.
