Didn't you hear me calling
As Darkness fell to Earth?
The beating of my heart stood still
While blackness filled my girth.
My eyes felt icy, cold and dark
I felt the staining plunder
Turning them dark indigo
My vision did encumber.
Didn't you hear me calling?
My mind shouted in despair
No response echoed back
Just the silence of night air.
Didn't you hear me calling?
Were you totally unaware
I needed you so desperately
It was as if you did not care.
The whisper of the willows
That always spoke to me
Now spoke as if in secrecy
As if they could foresee.
Then suddenly their secrecy
Was no more to be heard.
No whisper, wind nor flight of bird,
My deafness now occurred.
Now you will not hear me calling,
My mind shouted in despair
No response will echo back
Just silence everywhere.
Now you will not hear me calling.
You will be totally unaware
That I need you now so desperately.
I hope that you still care.
Just silence left within my mind,
I will miss your tender touch.
Please don't leave me in despair
I miss you oh so much.
Please don't leave me in despair
Don't leave me in despair.
