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 wakens in the night

He stands before THE 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

All he has to give YOU KNOW he would

GLADLY 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

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

A 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

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

AND that someday they'd be as one
