With three words we give our hearts away,
To people who hold it lighter than a word on the ear.
Lighter than a whisper.

With three words we give our lives away,
When people echo those three words strong and clear.
And hold each word dear.

With three words on one dark day,
We will give those lives away with words heavier than rain.
That fall in puddles on deaf ears.

With three words every day,
We will remember them with joy and pain.
Until they wake us with three words whispered in our ear.
