Three Bells for Stephen

Do you remember me, dear hearts and gentle people
I pray I have not stayed away too long
Do you think of me, dear hearts and gentle people
You can buy my memories for a song
Can you see the blue hills of Kentucky
Can you see my old Kentucky home
Can you hear my sweetheart sadly singing
In a voice as pure and sweet as heather in the gloam
Will you pray for me, dear hearts and gentle people
For what I have seen has brought me to my knees
On those lonely nights I could find no sleep
I’d unlock my heart and soul on strings and ivory keys
Now I come to you, dear hearts and gentle people
A voice across an endless sea of time
Wherever there are songs I will be singing
Dear hearts and gentle people goodnight
