I walked alone on a quiet day
with only the sound
of the trees that sway

Along came a girl
so sweet, so fair,
Singing a song I'd heard nowhere

I stopped in my tracks
and I did stare
my heart it beat, my mind it cleared

She kept right along, so unaware
her beauty had stunned a man
unfair

I watched her go
and felt my heart grow
to fit all the pain of a life unknown

now she's a girl
that's gone for me
the trees, they sway
as I'm humming.
