A step, a drop, drips, drips.
A step, a drop, thuds, thuds.
A shoe print in the mud.
A sad grin on my lips.

A figure, alone, hush, hush.
A figure, alone, weep, weep.
A shadow in the lonely street.
A heart lost in the morning's crush.

A sigh, a tear, drips, hush.
A sigh, a tear, weep, thud.
A love nipped at the bud.
A spark cherished but not to last.
