When I met her she was just engaged
I was only twenty-three
She left right when I said hello
I pursued her in my dreams
And when I found the courage
For to speak more than a word
She was dressed in green and wild as night
All like a Hummingbird
She stole my heart some more each day
She said You should be mine
We married in her father's house
Beneath the autumn sky
Blissfully I watched her
Darting round and out of sight
I knew I couldn't hold on long
These hands are much too tight
Yes she slips, there she slides
Here she comes and there she flies
She said she'd travel by my side
Unless death should do us part
It was in some crowded city street
There stopped her beating heart
So, gone before we made one year
Like all good things she passed
She disappeared into the breeze
And flew out for the last
In these times of constant change
I am holding on for you
The one whose affections I still crave
The one my world clings to
And these words of mine escape my mouth
And travel without bounds
Up through the clouds and into space
There run devotion's sounds
You can hear them!
Yes she slips, there she slides
Here she comes and there she flies
If I could be with her again
I don't know what I would say
But I'll always know her by her shape
Between the night and day
She comes to me in glimpses now
As fleeting as a word
Flashes bright and disappears
My darling Hummingbird.
