The Garden


We've been sleeping in the garden
Breath of summer
Breath of gold
As we turn against the sweep of hills
The sky's aglow

We fade away...
We fade away...

She burns away in light and silver
Luminous through all these years
Every gesture filled with longings
I still feel

We fade away...
We fade away...
We fade away...
We fade away...

I see you standing in the long light
Dress discarded
Windows glow
All across the warm horizons
The sunset goes

We fade away...
We fade away...
We fade away...
We fade away...
