Sandy Denny - In Memory (Tender Years) lyrics

I hear the sighing of the wind

Like a murmur of regret

And as I close my eyes

I see a face I will never forget

I see you running with the dawn

But that was many years ago

When you had seen the tender years

The only years you were to know

I knew a time when you and I

Ran through trees of green and gold

And gazed at clouds of feather grey

I never dreamt we would ever grow old.

But time has passed, my mind will dim

The hands will turn away my days

But you remain a timeless smile

Who'd just begun life's tangled ways.
