|
I walk along this lonely strand |
|
At the ebbing of the tide |
|
I have seen this place before |
|
You were walking by my side |
|
It was on this day one year ago |
|
That we came out to Geordie Bay |
|
Long before you closed your eyes |
|
And your body slipped away |
|
And life was long, love, life was long |
|
Life was long, love, life was long |
|
We had time, love, we had time |
|
For life was long, love, life was long |
|
Now a year has passed and things have changed, |
|
your spirt's returned from when it came, |
|
Still the ocean sounds the same, |
|
And the trees whisper your name. |
|
And they whisper the words you once said to me, |
|
'We have time, love, for life is long', |
|
So now I walk this path of memories, |
|
Reach out for your spirit and join you in song. |
|
Life is long, love, life was long |
|
Life is long, love, life was long |
|
We have time, love, we have time |
|
For life is long, love, life is long |
|
Had you known when you spoke these words |
|
That your time had come and you'd soon be gone |
|
You may never have spoken so |
|
Still I hear your voice signing... |
|
Life is long, love, life was long |
|
Life is long, love, life was long |
|
We have time, love, we have time |
|
For life is long, love, life is long |
