As the first light of dawn crept over my face
words could not say just how my heart sank
as I fell to the floor and cried in your lap
Your hair long again and pulled into a bun
and through trusty old frames
You looked at me again
Wearing a robe with patterns of satin
and nursing a pillow embroidered with light
I couldn't believe a chance had been given
For one last goodbye my beautiful mate
