Your presence is of the essence
Of a charming chamber violin
Like when you speak words
-That disappears unheard-
It warmly unravels my nerves
And makes me love in silence

Wholly my being afloat since when
The time in the beat was mutually spent
A promise upon the dance of two
A present to me, with harmony from you
Stunned soundly by this melody of mine
With its enchantment so purely sublime
This beautiful song that is made for two
With sacred hands by me and you

This violin sings as angels cry
That presence has no alibi
No orchestra to accompany
Her lonely wistful melody
Like a serenade to a haunted room
About love, given to her beautiful doom
Seems only time can take away
The lonely echo we left that day
Only dreams can tell us when
We'll hear the song we love again
