I see a little human child,
Unfurled a human bud...

So many years I wasted,
All my time of youth...

She saw herself only through his eyes,
At first he came on strong...

How can I tell you what I feel
For you, it's something...

Nowhere to turn to,
Nowhere to hide...

My heart cries out with longing
On this lovely summer's day...

She holds in her arms her newly-born child,
Forgetting the hours of pain...

Much distance now between us
And not just in the miles...

Don't cry baby, it will be
Though your mother's gone away...

The wind is making waves upon the puddles,
The washing on the line is never still...

You see my soul with eyes
That cast a single look on me...

Sometimes we don't appreciate this love,
This treasure that we share...
