She Heard The Old Man Sing

It was late at night when she heard the old man sing , 2 am when he thought no one would hear . Slow and sweet he sang the songs once sung by a love passed on; beautiful and best enjoyed alone,unaware others are listening at night she will never speak to him about this secret
