In The Midnight Hours

The moon dances in the evening skies
Tender feelings of the heart arise

In the hushed sounds of the night
Your silken whispers in the dark
Wrapping yourself around my heart
Playing a song of love in my mind

I listen to the echoes of our song
playing out in the moonlit sky
The sands of time lay still
time and space remain in place

In my mind I see your face
from some forgotten dream
Like a picture on a canvas
Shaping images in my mind

The years have fled and passed ahead
So many words I should have said
I remember rainbows in your eyes
promising never to say goodbye

Now dawn lights up the sky
One last kiss before goodbye
Remaining forever lost in time
When I held your hand in mine
