Whispering
Hear the ghosts in the moonlight
Sorrow doing a new dance
Through their bones, through their skin

Listening
To the souls in the fools night
Fumbling mutely with their rude hands
And there's heartache without end
See the father bent in grief
The mother dressed in mourning
Sister crumples
And the neighbors grumble
The Preacher issues warnings

History
Little Miss, didn't do right
Went and ruined all the true plans
Such a shame
Such a sin

Mystery
Home alone on a school night
Harvest moon over the blue land
Summer longing on the wind

Had a sweetheart on his knees
So faithful and adoring
And he touched me
And I let him love me
So let that be my story

Listening
For the hope, for the new life
Something beautiful, a new chance
Hear it's whispering
There again
