lirik lagu kathy mar - song of a dryad
old companion i know you are dying
i feel the dark moment rise up through your core
all your leaves die and your branches are bare
and i fear if i sleep i’ll awaken no more
chorus: oh, you have been a great-hearted friend
how we have peacefully travelled the years
now a soft counterpoint fills all my dreams
the fall of your leaves and the fall of my tears
old companion i wakened this morning
and felt a sad emptiness where you had been
i was alone; lost in my grief for you
missing your touch so much loser than kin
old companion i found in your shadow
one of the striplings that came from your seed
will he flourish feeding on all you were
will his young heart be the home that i need
new companion pardon my tears awhile
i will grow happier over the years
as we grow close time will be good to us
granting us centuries yet without fears
chorus: oh and he was a great-hearted friend
peacefully sharing my life ’til today
now he is only alive in my memory
all else he was will soon crumble away
first chorus
