Eternity

In the garden of our youth Where the heavens still sing Heavy rains pour down upon our souls My god used to walk with me He speaks through the flowers His voice is sweet like wine The melody he gave to the birds to sing The joy of such youth in flourishing gardens For I wish to sing, the sadness begins The night around me will come to an end As I grow to see the fates outside For we all must leave the garden of youth Now I am alone, not even Eve Will dance among the dead roses For the garden of youth has faded away Only a true heart would wish to stay I used to dream of heaven Who not wants to be saved From this earthy pain As raindrops poison my drink My god walks with me For there is no other Love does not belong to tomorrow I may live a dream, some have said Hoped for love, better off dead
