lyrics

On the bank of the river where I lay yesterday,
I watched the sunset against the hills begin to fade,
And in my dying words I spoke of you, Elizabeth.

I told of our baby Lily born last spring,
And how she looks when the morning light strikes her crib,
I said through Lily’s smile you’d remember me, and brush away your tears

Sweet young lady, come dance with me,
The sunset against the hills is where I’ll be,
And in my arms, I’ll brush away your tears, and tell you I’m still here Elizabeth.

So take me to our childhood where we bathed in the stream,
I’ve longed for the end of earth where the cliffs meet the sea,
Lay me beneath the stars on a crisp winters eve, Elizabeth.

Sweet young lady, come dance with me,
The sunset against the hills is where I’ll be,
And in my arms, I’ll brush away your tears, and tell you I’m still here Elizabeth.
