“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
I’ll engrave my bones with your name
So that, when my body is found,
All will know the true name
Of the one I loved
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
Let my body be covered by moss
Cradled by roots as I lay
At the foot of the tree
Under which you are buried
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
Let me sing to you
Until I fall asleep as well
And feel your warmth still
Even through the ground
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
Let me paint my chest
The colour of our love
Of our pride and our lips
Let them never wash away
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
Who will remember the woman
Who was loved so dearly
By her delicate friend
On whose breast she slept
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
I’m not afraid of dying
But only of being buried alone
Because who will remember you
And who will remember me?
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
If we could lie together
We would never be forgotten
Because even in death, I know
I will feel your hand in mine
“Someone will remember us, I say, even in another time”
I know you
And for as long as my spirit
Will cry and scream
And haunt this earth
I will remember you, my love, even in another time
