The Absence of Lucille

As time runs out, I'll feel
the absence of Lucille
who is going with the leaves
blown by the winter's breeze!

Loneliness brings me more tears,
her distance already hurts
and when the next evening comes
it won't have a surprise!

The absence of Lucille is
the worst and greatest loss,
her dream was lovelier than
the true love I gave her then!

As time runs out, I'll feel 
the absence of Lucille...
isn't she looking for the perfect man
who will take her back where it began?
