The green leaves have at this point turned brown
They say nature's smile is slowly turning into a frown
But I'm still here, waiting so earnestly for you...
Yes, I wait: for my heart knows not what else to do.

There is a sense of numbness that's forming inside of me
It feels like you're halfway across the world and you just as well might be
But neither time nor distance could ever make me forget the love that through you I found...
So I'll have to sit here and wait for the day when you'll finally come around.

It was always a sweet moment whenever I was with you,
Which is why right now it feels like my heart's been split in two.
You taught me of a love so tender, a love so true...
And so it is that still, my heart beats only for you.

You didn't just touch my heart my dear, you grasped my soul
Which is why I must admit that without you my heart couldn't ever be whole
And now as the sun sets, the skies darken with night....
It is in the hope of seeing you again that my lonely heart finds delight
