I stand alone in darkness, br A rose held in my hand, br The wind rustles in the trees, br As it sweeps across the land. br br I wait for your arrival, br I hope it will be soon, br I want to dance with you again, br By the light of the silver moon. br br And though you do not miss me, br I hope you won’t forget, br That the little girl you left alone, br Will grow stronger yet. br br I hear your footsteps on the ground, br Have you come back for me? br You take the rose from my hands, br And throw it in the sea.
