There was something in her eyes

That said to me

That what she was listening to

Couldn’t be heard

And the words being spoken

Couldn’t be said

There was something in the way

She held her head

That said to me

She really wasn’t where

She appeared to be

So I quietly whispered

Would you care to take a walk

She didn’t question why

Just quickly answered yes

Held out her hand to take

And I never said a thing

We walked through the night

Just listening to the stars

We felt the warmth of passion

Against the chill of night

And never spoke a word

For eyes, arms and lips

Say so much more

When the sun broke upon the day

The grass told where we lay

As time and years went by

I saw her eyes again

They were so much younger

As they reflected back my smile

There was nothing much to say

In the way she held her head

I just remembered how in the sun

The grass showed where we lay
