I heard the sweetest words in barely more than a whisper
Under the resplendent light of the glorious moon
From the lips of the one who set my heart ablaze in a glance
Then disappeared from my world way too soon

Now I find I search continuously to the ends of the Earth
For the lips that softly whispered my name
As the one who swiftly ignited my heart in a glance
So quickly left me all alone to tend the flame

I hold the whisper of his sweet words of love inside my soul
With a memory, that keeps the fire eternally bright
As I tend the flame with the vision of the eyes that I love
Held closely to my heart every night

Am I forever destined to tend the fire that burns in my soul
As I search for the lips that kindled the flame
Or will my searching eyes finally look once again into his
And hear him softly whisper my name
