Prophecy



I was following the
   King of Hearts
Along a forest path

We were running
   through the trees,
On top of slate grey stones

Laughing and singing
   joy filled my heart

Then I heard a voice
   singing a hopeful song

Two faces painted on
   my memory
One of me and one
    of no one I knew

The voice was singing
   a song
A song I never knew.

All I remember the
   voice saying:
There is a time for me
There is a time for you
There is a time for me
   and you

Two faces painted on
   my memory.
one of me
and one of you.
