Before The Twilight Falls

If sleep should steal your soul, my love, Before the twilight falls, Then I shall be there by your side When’er the darkness calls. I’ll hold your hand and soothe your brow, Your cheek set next to mine, To kiss you long and taste your lips As sweet as vintage wine. And should such darkness fall on you, Within its shadowed space You’ll find my eyes there shining bright Upon your ashen face. Know this, my love, I promise that You’ll never be alone, My heart will follow as you go Across that stepping stone. Our life shall always be as one, Not ever set apart – Through all my time, I’ll ever hold Your mem’ry in my heart.
