Original Song Lyrics ©Ruchira Mandal


~
Once upon a death

When the sun has set for the final time
The stars will long be gone
The moon will be a vacant husk
But my light will still be on
For us to find each other
Though the road be long
And in the twilight of the world
I’ll sing to you my song.

And though the light be dying
The birds they still be flying
In search of another sky where the sun will still be warm.

And we will wish, you and I
That we had our wings as well
But we lost them in our youth
When we flew too high and fell.
But I remember the wind and light
And won’t have it any other way
Every tale must come to an end
And we’ve had our day.

And though the light be dying
The birds they still be flying
In search of a galaxy where love will still be true.

And perhaps they will take our song
Somewhere the sun still shines
And it matters not that we breathe our last
For each love is yours and mine.
And when the moonlight glows afar
On stranger lips that kiss,
You and I will live again
In the wonder and the bliss.


The Age of Love

I have loved you forever
But now I’m letting go
And you’ll always be in my heart
But it’s time for lying low.
The age of love has passed,
There’s no time for that now,
The world is cold and dark
And not warmth enough in vows.
So go now, in the dusk
Say goodbye with a kiss
And perhaps you’ll find
A better world than this.
And I’ll remember you in songs
Silent in my head,
And I’ll feel the caress of your voice
In my lonely bed.
And when the war is won
When peace descends at last
You will be long gone
For the age of love has passed.

Falling

Once upon a time I fell in love
Twice upon a time I died
Thrice upon a time I dug a hole
And there in the earth I lied.

And beware all of that honeyed blade
That slices neat the heart
And once you fall there’s no climbing out
Nor pulling the poison dart.

Once upon a time as I kissed your lips
I chanced to look into your eyes
And the wine ran wild through my blood
As I drowned in the seas of your lies.

Once upon a time I fell in love- and I caught you
Twice upon a time I died- I would never let you
Thrice upon a time I dug a pit
And there in the ground we lied.
