Heartache's Hill

When you and I are lost sweet moments fading in Time's book, And ageing eyes gaze back in time to see that special look, Will we smile to see the fashions we once dared to wear, In our minds relive the passions that still linger there. Will our emotions be as strong when dreams are far away, And cinders deep recall the glow of love by fire-play, And chasing down the Autumn street where laughter breaks the chill, When youth was bright and love made light of climbing heartache's hill.
