Thousand Songs
Lyrics and lyric melody by Sally Stricker, music by Tony Bruno; copyright © 1999 Sally Stricker and Tony Bruno

"Whisper to me oh my lover Live forever as we said Walk with me into the river Wash the ashes of the dead"	(him)

Washing on stones Child at her breast Softly she moans When will she rest	(them)

"Whisper to me now I hear you Dying words on your tongue Life unspoken is a curtain Death unveils a thousand songs"	(him)

Walking on stones Tearing her dress Age in her bones Soon she will rest	(them)

"I cannot take you, sorry my love cannot free you, sorry my love"	(her)

"Whisper to me now I hear you As the light leaves your eyes Life was swollen as a river Death unveils a thousand songs"	(him)

'I cannot take you, sorry my love I cannot free you, sorry my love"	(her)
