I met her sadly in the slowly falling rain
|
Crying softly in her loneliness and pain
|
Knowing no one needin' someone bad as me
|
And she told me as I held her trembling hand
|
Walking slowly how she'd never known a man
|
Living lonely in her cottage by the sea.
|
|
When the morning came her tears had changed to laughter
|
And before the night her heart beat close to mine
|
And I thought as she lay sleeping bout the secrets she was keeping
|
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind.
|
|
In the morning as I wakened with the dawn
|
Without warning I could feel that she was gone
|
Leaving nothing but her silence next to me
|
And lonely footprints that I followed in the sand
|
Walking slowly for I knew where they would end
|
Disappearing in the silence of the sea.
|
|
And I sometimes hear the echoe of her laughter
|
As I search for what I know I'll never find
|
For the answer I was seeking was the secrets she's still keeping
|
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind.
|
|
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind...
