Back where I belong

Leave me here, then walk away,
But come once more another day,
To remember this fellow you knew.
Close your eyes, look around,
Sense the smell and hear the sound,
See my footstep, still wet, in the dew.

Here I stood, with my bride,
Full of love, and full of pride,
Here my heart, here my memory long.
Lay me soft, – then let go,
And while the gentle waters flow,
Then forever you will hear my lover’s song.
