"I don't want to lose you," she said
All the world is in that
And so you are all the world
And losing you would be losing
World and myself and you
I shall walk in Reading darling
Bittern Avenue or anywhere
Always believing my Faith
Will find me in and out
My world in you through you
Timeless in time one now me
Always mine my guardian
Time told me if you will
I shall pass but stay
In your memory find life
Your Faith moves like God
Your words were light and easy
Where there is no holding
The shifting of the breath of leaves
Is fetid and foreboding
With light the fallen trees
Replaced in old splendour
Green however
The guide, the river for ever
Confessing and glorious and even hoary man
Will smile "oh you youngsters, always in love"
He'll say and sigh but he wasn't vain
For even of his span your good light
Is a reflection of the lamp of the world
Casting beams beyond
"Have no fear" he said
Silly man singing the way across
She is waiting
She is indestructible
She is she was and will be
There, unlost
Errant timeless pageant
All the world is in that
And so you are all the world
And losing you would be losing
World and myself and you
I shall walk in Reading darling
Bittern Avenue or anywhere
Always believing my Faith
Will find me in and out
My world in you through you
Timeless in time one now me
Always mine my guardian
Time told me if you will
I shall pass but stay
In your memory find life
Your Faith moves like God
Your words were light and easy
Where there is no holding
The shifting of the breath of leaves
Is fetid and foreboding
With light the fallen trees
Replaced in old splendour
Green however
The guide, the river for ever
Confessing and glorious and even hoary man
Will smile "oh you youngsters, always in love"
He'll say and sigh but he wasn't vain
For even of his span your good light
Is a reflection of the lamp of the world
Casting beams beyond
"Have no fear" he said
Silly man singing the way across
She is waiting
She is indestructible
She is she was and will be
There, unlost
Errant timeless pageant
