We never saw the hour glass empty,
But pain did not hurt, for your face was always with me
And love cannot be killed by time

And heaven has dreams for us,
Though angels know my grief
My love, my love, the dawn approaches
And the Moon grows weak
The last moonbeams begin to fade
And mortal minds are waking
So I leave you with our memories and a farewell present
I give you my spirit

It will protect you from the sad things in life,
And heal your precious dreams.
A last kiss, and a secret promise, I now plant.
Wrapped in love,
