Whispers of Love
My love knew how I longed for twilight
Tender whispers he bestowed each night
The soothing sound of his mellow voice
Gave me hope and made my soul rejoice
I first heard him speak on the radio
Quickly I turned up the audio
Who was this man named John Devonshire?
His deep tone set my passion afire
John always knew the right words to say
How gently he made my heart strings sway
To this day I cling to memories
From heaven his voice carries on a breeze
So often I still hear him whisper
“You are my one and only lover”
And I respond as my teardrops fall
“You’re still my life, my hope, my all”
