On a winter's night stars are cold and bright in the sky

The slumber of the earth is pure and deep

From a distant wood drifts the echo of a beast

The old man stirs and awakens in the night

He stands before his window gazing at the grave

Forgotten dreams are flashing through his weary mind

And though his life is empty he pretends that she's still there

With hunger in his soul he yearns for life and love gone by

With memories his one and only joy

With all he has to give he would give to bring back the life

And raise the one

who lies beneath the snow

He lights a lamp and

looks at pictures of the past

The faces of their youth

still glow with new found love

But the picture's faded

and time has stolen youth away yeah yeah

With a spoken word that

he thought he heard from her lips

He felt another presence in the room

He was filled with fear

but filled with joy he arose

And turned to face

the image that he knew

She stood before him

and her hand reached out for his

Peaceful light shone in her eyes

She said she'd come to soothe

him and someday they'd be as one

She began to fade and her image disappeared

So he was left alone to face another night

But never in his life had he been so held in awe

As he faced the apparition of his wife

He stood before the window

gazing at the grave

And with a lightened heart he saw the first of dawn

He knew that she was waiting that someday they'd be as one
