Sitting in the dust, before the dawn I heard the news, I know now that he’s gone So high, into the bright light The prince has gone, saying bye I saw a sign that lead me to his smile As if he wanted to tell me “goodbye” I see the light of those blue eyes Here’s a song, saying bye For all the roads that he took All the things that he dreamed I bless and raise the red liquor And I’ll hold him in my memory A lullaby to wait for the sunrise The only time that I can look in his eyes Thousand storms are dawning The still cold thunder that the morning sings And the wind begins to moan And the leaves begin to come For ever he will stand right here And I’ll hold him in my memory
