If in some capricious moment
I should give you cause to fear
Then you have but to remember

That my being here is mere fortune
For the rules have laid down
To guide the thoughts of those who stray

If in some deserted hour
We should murmur last goodbyes
With the snowflakes falling softly
As the tears well in your eyes

Then we kiss but once and walk away
Never turning round
And the snow falls on our footsteps
Leaving nothing to be found

And my life is yet determined
By the span of what it holds
And the span grows ever shorter
As my lifetime folds away
