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
