I HEAR YOUR NAME

I hear your name whispered by the breeze

As it sails across the seven seas

My heart your essense entirely surrounds

Permeating it until love abounds



I hear your name when the songbirds sing

Listen to the messages of love they bring

It is your love that keeps me strong

A love like this just can't be wrong



I hear your name in the rage of a storm

Crackle of a fire that keeps me warm

Don't need a sound to hear your name

So let us end this waiting game



I hear your name in silence profound

This is something that does me astound

Come to me darling with great speed

You are all I want or will ever need



I hear your name and I am enthralled

Lost in a trance unless I'm forestalled

Your name echoed in each beat of my heart

Only to stop when from life I depart
