Lovers (feat. Shigeru Umebayashi)

Kathleen Battle


There was a field in my old town 
Where we always played hand in hand 
The wind was gently touching the grass 
We were so young, so fearless 

Then I dreamt o'er and over 
Of you holding me tight under the stars 
I made a promise to my dear lord 
I will love you forever 

Time has passed 
So much has changed 
But the field remains in my heart 
Oh, where are you? 
I need to tell you I still love you 
So I reach out for you 
You fly around me like a butterfly 
Your voice still echoes in my heart 
You are my true love 

There was a field in my old town 
Where in spring all flowers blossomed wide 
We were chasing butterflies 
Hand in hand 'til close of day 
Your voice still echoes in my heart
