I thought I saw you once
When you were still quite young
Surveying great beauty
Like a rain shower in the sun
And I can still hear them nearby
Those sharp voices of our youth
Shouting with pleasure in the fields

When I arrived in heaven
Calling out your name
Running just on vapor
Leaving my old flames
