cut the linen
stitch the cloth
mindless work to ease the sorrow
heartaches beat within the clock
emptied to the marrow
tomorrows wither before they bud
carried on the wings of sparrows
stitch the cloth
prepare the shroud
numbed to the core
heart breaking
time mocks
each tick is loud
every fibre aching
i will see you in the clouds
your face, your eyes, your smile
i'll feel you running with the wind
my heart, my spirit wild
i'll play for you on rainy days
sweet music of the soul
until we are again as one
for without you
i am less than whole
i will hear you
amid the trees at night
each rustling, restless leaf
to dream of you in the after life
letting faith absolve my grief
and when morning breaks to turn the tide
keening pipes to lead the way
acoss the hills and heather
to your lonely grave
i promise not to cry my love
i promise to be brave
but i'll never say goodbye my love
for we will meet again
