Before I die I'll write this letter

Over the hills and down the valleys

Lying on stony ground the fragments

Weighing the words one tries to use

Sometimes I wonder if they're real (we're ready to receive you now)

Or is it my own imagination (have you any more to say?)

Some things are better left unsaid
