7. fallen embers

Once, as my heart remembers,
All the stars were fallen embers,
Once, when night seemed forever
I was with you.

Once, in the care of morning
In the air was all belonging.
Once when that day was dawning
I was with you.

How far we are from morning,
How far are we
And the stars shining through the darkness,
Falling in the air.

Once as the night was leaving
Into us our dreams were weaving.
Once, all dreams were worth keeping.
I was with you.

Once when our hearts were singing,
I was with you.
