Moonshadow Magic

When you sat by my side on the banks of the stream
With your hand in my hand on your thigh
When you lulled me to sleep on the edge of your dream
And I drifted away on your sigh
As the sky filled with stars and the moon lit the world
We were bathed in her silvery light
We are lovers who wait on the edge of the cliff
We’re not ready to plunge out of sight
Just the light of the moon was not magic enough
So we stayed on the brink of our bliss
Subtle shadows then fell on the edge of the bluff
And our lips became locked in a kiss
Our embrace lasts for years and the magic remains
In the words that two lovers can share
If there’s nothing to fear there’s an end to all pains
And the spell can extend everywhere
Now the Moonshadow magic has bound you to me
So there’s nothing can tear us apart
In the world it may be we are parted by sea
But you’ll always be here in my heart
