Heaven's Gate |
| a man I met in my youth |
| came to me in the light of truth |
| a beautiful dream that was |
| till he died one rainy fall |
| there I was a child bride |
| widowed at ninteen, defied |
| never would I let him go |
| go to the place that heaven knows |
| on the evening of his death |
| my shoulders felt a brushing breath |
| cold were his hands on my breast |
| the man that I loved and put to rest |
| he came to me and held me close |
| we danced til dawn in the early snow |
| there I felt him cry and cry |
| «I'll never leave, leave your side» |
| oh the madness |
| this town thinks I’m mad |
| sixty years, has it been a dream |
| this man I’m haunted by, I see |
| I’m eighty years and on my bed |
| awaiting death, that final breath |
| he sits by and looks to me |
| «soon you will come and be with me» |
| now I feel all warm inside |
| as I leave this mortal body behind |
| seems it is eternal’s way |
| we’re waltzing into heaven’s gate |
