Ever long and away from here
In a secret Galilee
Where a silver river runs
Through the heart of Bethany
It was there we shared a love so rare
And it burned me as a flame
[Chorus]
And there she remains
There she remains
Where I found her in golden glow
Under breaking dawn
I would swear she's the fairest thing
That e're the sun shone on
She would sing to me under sighing trees
Like a thorn driven deep
[Chorus]
There she remains
There she remains
There she remains
There she remains
I loved you with sweet words
Every one I hoped would be true
Your love rose like a bird
From the very of heart of you
So do dead men still rise again
Does Jesus weep for me
Still do silver rivers flow
From the heart of Bethany
She was in a sense torn from me
Like a thorn driven deep
[Chorus]
Still she remains
Still she remains
And she lingers in memory
Like a dying summer rain
And it rises within me
Like a sudden rush of pain
Oh and love, will she, relentlessly
For the broken ones and the meek
Nevermore for me
Nevermore for me
