Lamplight Symphony-Kansas[00:00:02]
On a winter's night stars[00:00:34]
Are cold and bright in the sky [00:00:37]
The slumber of the earth is pure and deep[00:00:40]
From a distant wood drifts the echo of a beast[00:00:46]
The old man stirs and wakens in the night[00:00:53]
He stands before THE window[00:00:59]
Gazing at the grave[00:01:02]
Forgotten dreams are flashing[00:01:05]
Through his weary mind[00:01:07]
And though his life is empty [00:01:11]
He pretends that she's still there[00:01:14]
With hunger in his soul [00:01:25]
He yearns for life and love gone by [00:01:27]
With memories his one and only joy[00:01:32]
All he has to give YOU KNOW he would[00:01:38]
GLADLY give to bring back the life [00:01:41]
And raise the one who lies beneath the snow[00:01:44]
He lights a lamp and looks at pictures of the past[00:01:50]
The faces of their youth still glow with new-found love [00:01:56]
But the picture's faded and time has stolen youth away[00:02:02]
With a spoken word that he[00:02:22]
Thought he heard from her lips [00:02:24]
He felt another presence in the room [00:02:27]
He was filled with fear but[00:02:34]
Filled with joy he arose[00:02:36]
And turned to face the image that he knew[00:02:39]
She stood before him and her[00:02:46]
Hand reached out for his[00:02:49]
A peaceful light shone in her eyes[00:02:53]
She said she'd come to soothe him [00:02:59]
And someday they'd be as one[00:03:02]
She began to fade and her image disappeared [00:06:59]
So he was left alone to face ANOTHER night [00:07:06]
Never in his life had he been so held in awe [00:07:12]
As he faced the apparition of his wife[00:07:19]
He stood before the window gazing at the grave [00:07:24]
And with a lightened heart he saw the first of dawn [00:07:31]
He knew that she was waiting [00:07:37]
AND that someday they'd be as one[00:07:40]
