When did the petals fall off our love?
When did the honeybees flee?
When did the sweet scent sour?
When did you stop loving me?
...

There are no magic words I can say,
That can take all the pain away,
But let time be your friend, my friend,
...

How to say goodbye to you,
How to turn and walk away,
Knowing I’ll never see your smile again,
Never hear your voice from this day,
...

Forever my Greenleaf on winter’s lonely tree,
Forever my candle on coldest autumn breeze,
Forever my Sirius in darkest distant night,
But tell me my love,
...

Stoke the dying embers,
Unearth the’ laid to rest’,
Enter the sealed chambers,
Unlock the forgotten chest,
...

Shall I wait for thee?
Tell me, how long?
Shall I let thee be?
Never, I’m not that strong,
...
