Same Time, Next Life The days are short, the hours are few I’ve not much time for loving you We met upon the sunset hour And witnessed love begin to flower The body has grown ill and weak The mind too fragile dreams to seek But hearts are beating ecstacy In rhythms of the pounding sea Our love has come to us too late A lover’s loss, a wicked fate But time will bury all our strife I’ll meet you here same time, next life Just stand upon the ocean pier The loveliest evening of the year Against the red of sunset sky A soul that loved but did not die Your face will not appear the same And I won’t even know your name But this I swear to be what's true Within my heart I’ll know it’s you We’ll be as one, as man and wife Just meet me here same time, next life Elizabeth Santos |
