abandoned garden

in your abandoned garden

sunlight still prevails

the jasmine climbs the trellis fragrantly

the

jacaranda ultravioletly sways

the blossom. each of them by your hand planted

will

even if i tell them of your sudden

disappearance from us

not believe the tale

though the samba has ended

i know in the sound

of your voice

your piano

your flute

you are found

and the music within you continues to flow

sadly

lost antonio

you were my inspiration

my hero

my friend

on the highway of time will i meet you again?

if the heart ever heals

does the scar always show

for the lost antonio?

for the lost antonio?

in your abandoned garden

beauty is unchanged

the hummingbird still hovers for the scent the

frangipane so seductively displays

camellias

each of them by your hand planted

the sadness of your sudden disappearance still

unknown to them

await the kiss of rain

though the samba has ended

i know in the sound

of your voice

your piano

your flute

you are found

and the music within you continues to flow

sadly

lost antonio

you were my inspiration

my hero

my friend

on the highway of time will i meet you again?

if the heart ever heals

does the scar always show

for the lost antonio?

for the lost antonio?
