He said I must be dreaming
|
|
But I thought I heard the sound
|
|
The sound that lovers make
|
|
As they drop down from the window
|
|
Quiet as cats, across the courtyard
|
|
Moving from shadow to shadow
|
|
Past the guards to the forest
|
|
So quiet in her still reflection
|
|
Drawing them down, drawing them down to the lake
|
|
To the centre of her attention
|
|
|
|
Steal the moon tonight
|
|
Before the morning
|
|
Steal the moon tonight
|
|
I just love a good mystery
|
|
|
|
And on the West Bank a boat is being pulled
|
|
Across the sands they move so softly
|
|
Slip into water
|
|
Oars dip, don't break the moon's reflection
|
|
And drift like a cloud
|
|
To the centre
|
|
Beneath her cool attention
|
|
|
|
Still water
|
|
Still water
|
|
|
|
Steal the moon tonight
|
|
Before the morning
|
|
Steal the moon tonight
|
|
|
|
I want to drown in your moon dream
|
|
I've seen you rising from shore to shore
|
|
I want to drown in your moon dream
|
|
I've seen you rising
|
|
|
|
Steal the moon tonight
|
|
Shine
|
|
Shine
|
|
Shine
|
