I heard your name in whispers

\nI heard your name in whispers as the South West wind went by
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 A gentle breeze that stirred the garden’s sleep
\nAnd later when the Moon appeared she wrote across the sky
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 The promise that your love was mine to keep<\/p>\n
An aging oak spoke highly of the beauty of your hair
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 And rustled leaves to show he meant his words
\nI can’t be sure but think I smelt your perfume on the air
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 While listening to the songs of laughing birds<\/p>\n
The blushing of the roses is a tribute to your cheeks
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 And cornflowers hold the secret of your eyes
\nI hear your song and laughter when the ancient church bell speaks
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 And carries sweet perfection to the skies<\/p>\n
The stream that trickles gently on the lonely mountainside
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Is not as fresh as kisses from your lips
\nAnd nothing meets the pleasure that you charmingly supplied
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Beneath your sweetly searching fingertips<\/p>\n
You wake me in the morning with a thought of happiness
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 And tuck me up in bed to chase my dreams
\nYour laughter in the evening serves to wash away the stress
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 That tries to tear contentment at the seams<\/p>\n
Please promise me you love me and that we will never part
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 I’ll give you all the world and half the sky
\nYou’re all I’ve ever wanted and the owner of my heart
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Together we will teach the world to fly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
