The Secret
I loved the way u said my name those many yrs ago
through all the dreams not meant to be it said “I love you so”
so small a thing so sweet a thing that makes the heart with rapture sing
I loved the way you said my name those many yrs ago
through all the laughter gladness tears
of those succeeding robber yrs
it still remains my heart’s delight
my sun by day my moon by night
the comfort of my sleepless hours
the scent of dead remembered flowers
Oh yes a foolish a little thing
to make a heart recalling sing
and yet i know i know i know
no one has ever said my name as you did long ago.
