Crown of leaves, high in the window on a gold morning Young today, old as a railroad tomorrow Days are just drops in the river to be lost always Only you, only you, you know Years ago, birds of a feather would arrive nightly Gone you know, held to another like clutched ivy On the shore, speak to the ocean and receive silence Only you, only you, you know You hesitate, so my memory fades I'll hold to the first one "I wouldn't turn to another," you say On the long night we've made Let it go Only you, only you, you know Only you, only you, you know You hesitate, so my memory fades I'll hold to the first one "I wouldn't turn to another," you say On the long night we've made Let it go Let it go Speak to me slow, my dear No ghost, of course, in here Pleased to be lonesome, quiet and clear All is alone in here
