Allan Charles Wilson (18 October 1934 – 21 July 1991) was a pioneer in the use of molecular approaches to understand evolutionary change and reconstruct phylogenies, and a contributor to the study of human evolution. He was one of the most controversial figures in post-war biology; his work attracted a great deal of attention both from within and outside the academic world.

Hey, can't you feel the rain fall down 
And can't you see the leaves, they're covering the ground 
The days draw down to winter 
Persephone's gone underground 
To the one who loves her 

And at night, the winds blow you away 
From our home, into the fields of white and grey 
And the light drains from the windows 
Into the shining street 
And then fades away beneath your feet 

And here we are, and here we stay
Where the river turns in its bed and then flows away 
And the silence reigns as I have nothing more to say 
My memories of you fading by the day 

I walk around this room, listening for your step 
And if I close my eyes, I dream I can feel your breath 
And then the phone rings, oh its someone for you dear 
But you can't come to the phone, ever again 

I look out into the night, you're waiting there for me 
Behind the curtain of everything that I can see 
But you are lost to me now, swimming at the bottom of the sea 
I am alone as a man can possibly be 

And here we are, and here we stay
Where the river turns in its bed and then flows away 
I'm standing on my feet, you are lying on the shelf 
And in that small dark urn, is the best part of myself 

Oh, it's time for you to go 
My life is passing by, much too slow 
And I, I must stop living this lie 
Oh I, I too must say goodbye 
And cry, and die 
Then from the mountain I will sing, high
