To Think of You Is to Treasure an Absent Memory Lyrics

When you shut your eyes and fell asleep dark clouds descended on the souls of the ones who held you close to their hearts and the rain that came gently met your tears they became one and seeped into the earth I watched from a distance and... my heart broke open as if to tell them... the beauty of an embrace a place to lay down the pain where blood and fire bring rest and peace I sit away in a secret place the shadow of wings I think of you and my heart breaks open
