A diamond marked our betrothal

The gem sparkled bright on your finger

Then we sped to the chapel to wed

We no longer had any need to linger

 

Two sacred stones haunt my memories

The ring that you took to the grave

And the marble headstone above you

After that sad return to the chapel nave

 

Our marriage was short but blissful

We had no time even to think

About children and the future

It seemed you were gone in a blink

 

Two sacred stones haunt my memories

The ring that you took to the grave

And the marble headstone above you

After that sad return to the chapel nave

 

Life is fragile and impermanent

But those stones will lie there forever

Long after I have followed you

When we will again be together

 

Two sacred stones haunt my memories

The ring that you took to the grave

And the marble headstone above you

After that sad return to the chapel nave
