I wandered by a brookside |
|
I wandered by a mill |
|
I could not hear the water |
|
The murmuring it was still |
|
Not a sound of any grasshopper |
|
Nor the chirp of any bird |
|
But the beating of my own heart |
|
Was the only sound I heard |
|
The beating of my own heart |
|
Was the only sound I heard |
|
Then silent tears fast flowing |
|
When someone stood beside |
|
A hand upon my shoulder |
|
I knew the touch was kind |
|
He drew me near and nearer |
|
We neither spoke one word |
|
But the beating of our own two hearts |
|
Was the only sound I heard |
|
The beating of our own two hearts |
|
Was the only sound I heard |
