And there it rests against the wall
The chair that last night's passion held And there the bed where they did hold So closely that they seemed to weld But now so empty does it seem This room where hearts aflame did touch Where whispered words in dark were spent Oh how he misses her so much He traced her form in their embrace And found he could not leave her eyes As gently did he kiss her face While listening to her sweet sighs So short their time within the night Each moment precious and so few And each a treasure for the heart Such little time, so much to do As night moved closer to the day She had to leave the nest they'd kept They talked until it almost light And neither one of them had slept He slides beneath the sheets to sleep Breathes in the scent she left behind And closes eyes to once again Be with her loveliness in mind |
