Introdução:
C
It was a day in that blue month september
F C
Silent beneath the plum trees' slender shade
Am
I held her there
Dm
My love, so pale and silent
G C
As if she were a dream that must not fade
F C
Above us in the summer shinning heaven
Am Dm
There was a cloud my eyes dwelled long upon
G Dm
It was quite white and very high above us
G
Then I looked up
C
And found that it had gone
C
And since that day, so many moons in silence
F C
Have swum across the sky and gone below
Am Dm
The plum trees surely have been chopped for firewood
G C
And if you ask, how does that love seem now
F C
I must admit, I really can't remember
Am Dm
Though I know what you are trying to say
G Dm
But what that face was like, I know no longer
G C
I only know I kissed it on that day
C
As for the kiss, I long ago forgot it
F C
But for the cloud that floated in the sky
Am Dm
I know that still and shall forever know it
G C
It was quite white and moved in very high
F C
It may be that the plum trees still are blooming
Am Dm
That woman's seventh child may now be there
G Dm
And yet that cloud had only bloomed for moments
G
When I looked up
C
It vanished on the air.
