Blue like the winter snow in the full moon
Black like the silhouettes of the trees
Late blooming flowers lie frozen underneath the stars
I want you to remember me that way

Far away
I'll be gone. Will you wait for me?
How long?
I don't know. Will you wait for me?

Still, as the river grows in December
Silent and perfect blinding ice
Spring keeps her promises
No cold can keep her back
I want you to remember me that way

Far away
I'll be gone. Will you wait for me here?
How long?
I don't know but wait for me here
Follow
Don't follow me to where, where I go

Far away
I'll be gone. Will you wait for me here?
How long?
I don't know, will you wait for me here?
Follow
Don't follow me to where I've gone
Follow
Don't follow me to where I've gone

Someday you'll take my place
And I'll wait for you here
