[Verse 1]
And in the distance could be heard
What might have been a whispered word
I thought I heard a sighing too
And instantly I follow you

[Verse 2]
Just beyond and further still
A shadow of a larger hill
Moves between me and my view
And interrupts my thought of you

[Verse 3]
Then I see a rotten fly
Across my view into the sky
I thought perhaps he somehow knew
Why he appeared instead of you

[Verse 4]
A silent owl just floated by
The moon black in the summer sky
And I'm still here beneath this tree
Wondering when you'll speak to me

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
Wondering when you'll speak to me
