Under the Sloping Roof

Stay with me
Under the sloping roof
Listen to the rain softly falling.
Let our heartbeats prove
That the sadness and pain
Of last week´s fruitless calling
Into distance
Was a grain
That grew to be a flower
A rose of violet and red.
To each other we have said
The words that tower
Up and high above
Those are the words of love
The words of living power.
