Golden Hour

All in a golden afternoon, under the skies of cloudless blue

I wished that, here with me, were you


On this afternoon, with the setting sun casting a golden hue

I basked in the remembrance of your company

Your company, as sweet as a cup o’ honey


Cloudless blue skies, clear as the space to my right

Where you occupied always with delight


Dearly, I found that I miss you

All in a golden afternoon, under the skies of cloudless blue
