Song Lyrics

I met her sadly in the slowly falling rain
Crying softly in her loneliness and pain
Knowing no one, needin' someone bad as me

And she told me as I held her trembling hand
Walkin' slowly how she'd never known a man
Livin' lonely in her cottage by the sea

When the mornin' came, her tears had changed to laughter
And before the night her heart beat close to mine
And I thought as she lay sleeping all the secrets she was keepin'
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind

In the mornin' as I wakened with the dawn
Without warning I could feel that she was gone
Leavin' nothin' but her silence next to me

And lonely footprints that I followed in the sand
Walkin' slowly for I knew where they would end
Disappearin' in the silence of the sea

And I sometimes hear the echoes of her laughter
As I search for what I know I'll never find
'Cause the answer I was seekin' was the secrets she's still keepin'
Hidden somewhere in the silence of the shadows of her mind
