The crowded silence As friends leave for home The clinging whispering passion The creeping shadows of a moonlit night Lost in the dying embers of morning.
You gave me flowers too gentle to touch You loved me that much.
Such thoughts cannot be For I remember as if it was yesterday Petals dancing in your eyes Feeling so safe lost in eternity.
You gave me flowers too sweet to smell You loved me that much then.
In my blindness Your smile and grace Were for all the blind to see A kiss blown only For another standing next to me.
You gave me flowers too gentle to touch You loved me that much.
