A WHISPER IN THE WIND

She hears her name spoken softly in the dark
Sweeter then the sound of a meadowlark
Turning around to find him, searching for his face
In that lonely empty space
It’s just a whisper in the wind

Her heart beats like the pounding of a drum
Tears fill her dark eyes, she is overcome
She begins to tremble and falls to her knees
Listens for a sound on the breeze
A single whisper in the wind

In reality she knows he was never here
She closes her eyes, tries to draw him near
Wills her heart from her body into the night
That shines for her like a blinding light
She’s just a whisper in the wind

In her mind she finds him, two hearts join as one
If only for a while they lay out in the sun
Joyful in the joining like a soft melody
Love lifts them up, sets them free
Like a gentle whisper in the wind

She feels the pull as her body calls her heart
Time and distance pulling them apart
Holding on, she can’t let go
Of love and joy she’s come to know
Nothing but a whisper in the wind

Soon she loses sight of him in a distant mist
A fading memory, a feeling, a kiss
Drifting away, her vision becomes dim
With a lonely tear, calls out to him
Sends a whisper in the wind
