Ashes in the wind .
[Verse 1]
I'll walk across the hillside towards that old Abbey
To the spot we found together back in 1970
And I'll stay one last night with you on this old roman way
Just the two of us, together, until the dawning of the day
And I'll take you to the hilltop, where I surprised you with a ring
Where you put your arms around me and changed everything
[Verse 2]
We watched the waters flowing down that rocky stream
Such a long, long time ago, it feels just like a dream
But for me, the dream is over and I can't help but cry
The hardest thing a man can do is say that last "Goodbye"
And I'll gaze across the valley, just remembering
And then with a heavy heart, throw your ashes to the wind
[Verse 3]
So many years together, so many memories
I can tell you that I never thought you'd be the first to leave
I pray that when my time comes when my life has reaches its end
I can rely upon the kindness of family and friends
And will they bring me to this hilltop to where it all began?
And speaking words of kindness, throw my ashes to the wind
[Outro]
The two of us, forevermore, just ashes in the wind
