[00:23.14]i saw the back of the stars
[00:28.79]tremble and fall
[00:33.75]while seahorses played
[00:39.01]on the slope of your breast
[00:44.67]i saw a hundred angels
[00:50.24]rush to the ground
[00:54.93]they were giving you garlands
[01:00.17]and giving you crowns
[01:05.95]the flowers are everywhere
[01:10.51]Christ glorious entwined
[01:15.91]the tip of the moon
[01:20.80]and the sun as it shines
[01:26.23]and the roots as they burrow
[01:31.53]and tunnel through earth
[01:35.43]and the birds as they soar on their wings
[01:40.74]i heard them whisper your name
[01:47.35]and i remember you there
[01:57.88]and the turtle-doves hiding
[02:02.82]as your eyes roared with light
[02:07.89]and i remember your smile
[02:13.04]so wide and so red
[02:18.62]whilst the snowflakes covered
[02:23.80]your hair with their seals
[02:28.87]and i remember our bliss
[02:34.24]as we gazed at the wall
[02:39.53]and i remember you there
[02:48.91]i remember you there
[02:54.09]with your mocking bird hair
[02:59.00]some years ago
[03:03.91]we had sat down and wept
[03:09.18]with the sea in our ears
[03:14.24]and seven cats on our laps
[03:19.79]whilst the books gathered dust
[03:25.24]unread and untrue
[03:30.25]and you flicked through the letters
[03:35.57]i could not bear to read
