We once lived in Israel, you and I, Two thousand years of living among strangers, Came to America, grew up in Brooklyn, And settled in this gracious golden land. We share our lives with those before and after. Our sojourn here is brief, but not alone. Love and memory bind us together, Traveling through time from home to home. I cannot wait to see who you will be And where your life will take you. I'll be there, With you in the sunshine of your morning And in the sweet air of your starlit night. And then, where will we go, you and I? What fields that roll like waves towards distant mountains Will we cross over with our generations, Together in a world we'll never know?
