We were lovers We made a suicide pact There was no place for us In a world of brute fact
We were lovers We never knew how to act And above us The aurora borealis Bore witness to that
Where in the world is there space For the beauty we shared? Nowhere At the bend in the river Remember the herons and cranes But as they have flown, so must we go
We were lovers We made a suicide pact We let sleep steal across us In the snow where we sat And above us Came a meteor shower We went down on our knees Before a universal power
Where in the world is there time For the love we have shared? Nowhere Deep in the forest Remember the acorns and cones Before they have grown we must be gone
We were lovers We never knew how to act The aurora borealis Is our epitaph
Where in the world is there realm and dominion enough For love? From the 747 Remember the shapes of the clouds But when we are gone they'll be our shrouds
