The Echoing Green ? Heidi’s song
There’s a simple kind of truth
That comes with never
And there’s a certain kind of stain
That comes with forever
But I can hold your hand
And you take mine
And we can walk on through
To the other side of our lives
Forever’s such a short time when
I can see my destiny
In your russet eyes
And I can hear a symphony
In your autumn sighs
And I can sing you a song
That’ll make you cry yet smile inside
And we can hold on to each other’s hearts
Til we die
And angels close our eyes.
There’s secret kind of hope you hold
That you won’t say
There’s something special about a mystery
Told in this quiet way
But when I hear you laugh
I feel the hope of angels
The gates of Heaven
Are open to strangers tonight…
Shining like starlight
