You have gone away, my love,
To the mysterious realm of Somewhere,
But in my quiet moments,
I know the aura of your presence.

In the echoing silence of our lonely room,
You watch me from the doorway,
But when I turn
For one last glimpse of you,
You are not there; you have gone away.

Softly, softly you call my name,
And the sound of your voice,
A whisper on the sighing wind,
Fades into silence; you have gone away.

Last night, my love,
I felt your gentle caress,
Like the kiss of a butterfly,
Ephemeral and fleeting.

I know you are there,
A part of Heaven,
But I cannot touch you;
You have gone away,

My yearning soul
In ceaseless sadness wanders
To memories of springtime
When you and I were one.

And when, long and lonely,
The years have spun their last for me,
I shall be with you again, my love,
At one with you and destiny.
