Carla Bruni
Autumn
There is a wind where the rose was
Cold rain where sweet grass was
And clouds like sheep
Stream o'er the steep
Grey skies where the lark was

Nought gold where your hair was
Nought warm where your hand was
But phantom, forlorn
Beneath the thorn
Your ghost where your face was

Sad winds where your voice was
Tears, tears where my heart was
And ever with me
Child, ever with me
Silence where hope was
