Alone in the shadows --- of a willow tree

Coming closer to me

Those brief moments return --- of the day we first met

The time we shared with that special care

Free from all jealousy

There must be a distant place ----- Far from every wrong face

Tears won't fall by chance ----- On this sweet romance

Where the light of the moon --- and the lay of the land

D Em C Em A

Brightened the way of so many nights --- Helping us understand

The line that we crossed --- to climb those hills

Gave us the strength to never fear
