When black horses come for me
In feather- plumish finery
They'll take me to the cherry tree
So brittle are the lives we lead
Like blossom on the cherry tree
Where a moment's beauty shining bright
With a soft breeze in the night
Then we'll know our time is done
And no longer in our time
And all the things that us define
The future lets us fall behind
But our time is not in vain
And with the kiss of spring's
We will live our time again
So brittle are the lives we lead
Like blossom on the cherry tree
With a soft breeze in the night
Then we'll know our time is done
When we go let's say goodbye
In the roots we will entwine
Return to earth for eternity of time
And in the silence comes the rain
And then the crow will fly again
The black crow and I will fly
From underneath the cherry tree
From underneath the cherry tree
So brittle are the lives we lead
Like blossom on the cherry tree
With a soft breeze in the night
Then we'll know our time is done
From underneath the cherry tree
From underneath the cherry tree
