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
