Song of the Whispering Leaves

I can see you my dear standing there

In the shade of a beautiful tree

And the breezes on high played a sweet lullaby

Called the song of the whispering leaves

The leaves made a promise of love

They say a lover’s heart never grieves

But now I’m here all alone dreaming of you my own

And the song of the whispering leaves

There’s no one can take your place in my heart

That my darling you have to believe

For since you left me here I just can’t seem to hear

The sweet song of the whispering leaves

The leaves like our love now are gone

And all of my life I will grieve

For the wind in the trees and that soft melody

Called the song of the whispering leaves
