Mist on the Wind

The last golden flower now falls
Falls - falls
To the sorrowful ground.
The last silver teardrop now falls
Falls - falls
On the freshly dug mound.
My heart cries out to the wind
Wind - wind
For my friend is now gone.
But no sobs do I cry to the wind
Wind - wind
For then soft comes a song.

Echoing trees around me, alone,
I watch o'er the rest of my friend.
Mist on the wind, your howling retreats.
I fear not the mist on the wind.

A fire inside me now burns
Burns - burns
Bringing light in the glade.
My friend's gentle singing so burns
Burns - burns
In my memory's shade.

When I am gone from this world, you must know:
Go on without me, my friend.
Mist on the wind does not hold you, as I.
Keep not the mist on the wind.

I reach up my hand to the sun
Sun - sun
And a shadow does lift from my eyes.
I can live again under the sun
Sun - sun
Undaunted by memory's cries,

Dew on the trees around me shines new
I watch o'er the rest of my friend.
Mist on the wind clears away for the day,
So I heed not the mist on the wind...

Heed not the mist on the wind...
