Leaves are falling
And the sky is grey
I crossed that bridge on the Maumee River
Come to see my grandmother's grave
High on a hill
The rain is gently falling
In the grass
By the stone that bears her her name
Life comes and goes
And flickers like a candle
Still the spirit of love
Forever stays the same
Tonight in my dreams
I go back to linger
In a life not long ago
That I once knew
To a girl I loved
And rooms I remember
Just like a ghost who is lost
I'm wandering through
My heart is aching
With a thousand joys and sorrows
In my sleep
In my dreams
I call her name
Life comes and goes
And flickers like a candle
Still the spirit of love
Forever stays the same
Tonight I felt the summer ending
In the darkness, ever softly
She slipped on by
Down in the field
At the four roads crossing
I watched the flashing
Last blue stars of the fireflies
I stood there on the ground
Where my ancestors lay sleeping
In this land
They lived and loved
Now they dream in the rain
Life comes and goes
And flickers like a candle
Still the spirit of love
Forever stays the same
Oh Lord, yes it does
Forever stays the same
I've returned to north Ohio Leaves are falling And the sky is grey I crossed that bridge on the Maumee River Come to see my grandmother's grave High on a hill The rain is gently falling In the grass By the stone that bears her her name Life comes and goes And flickers like a candle Still the spirit of love Forever stays the same Tonight in my dreams I go back to linger In a life not long ago That I once knew To a girl I loved And rooms I remember Just like a ghost who is lost I'm wandering through My heart is aching With a thousand joys and sorrows In my sleep In my dreams I call her name Life comes and goes And flickers like a candle Still the spirit of love Forever stays the same Tonight I felt the summer ending In the darkness, ever softly She slipped on by Down in the field At the four roads crossing I watched the flashing Last blue stars of the fireflies I stood there on the ground Where my ancestors lay sleeping In this land They lived and loved Now they dream in the rain Life comes and goes And flickers like a candle Still the spirit of love Forever stays the same Oh Lord, yes it does Forever stays the same Explain Request ×
