On every leaf,
Of every tree
And beautiful in memory.
A girl in black
Shared her love with me —
Secrets dark and true.
In each word,
I see remain
Nothing greater than her name.
Written, sweetly still.
In empty voices,
All around
Her gentle voice can still be found.
Reaching, softly still.
On every wave,
Of every sea
And beautiful in memory.
A girl in black
Shared her love with me —
Secrets dark and true.
