You stood always smiling, ever quiet, ever tender And i a lost child always frightened i remember That you came and found me blinded by unshed tears
The tears we cry are echoes That tell what tomorrow can hold, and i wept in your arms, and i heard bells ring out across the land ringing peace at last to your heart my dearest friend and now the look that you gave me blooms and will live on through the tears in us all without end
