My love sits alone on this night
Listening to the wind through the trees
Upon her face this gentle breeze
Caressing the tears
She sheds for me
Listen to the wind my love
For it carries my name
Upon that gentle breeze
Comes to you my message
Listen closely to my words
For they are of my heart
Take them to yours
Bearer of my love
I write them in your name
For when I close my eyes
Yours is the face I see
In all its beauty
There before me
My heart beats to the rhythm
Of your sweet name
As I speak it softly to myself
Over and again
I can feel you near to me
Even when you're afar
Your last kiss still wet upon my lips
And that breath you shared
Still breathes inside of me
So hear these words my love
As you sit now
Listening to the soft summer breeze
Know that you're not alone
Close your eyes and I'll be there
My spirit the breeze
