Understand the Night
When she flashes her
sparkling eyes at dusk
She flirts with Twilight
When the noise of day dies away
The Night and Twilight
stay and stay
Making quiet love
up high over the town
And the gentle Twilight
gives his light
Making a queen of Night
If I could I would write a
sonnet of the night as a
Rememberance of your eyes
And if you'd promise not to tell
I could whisper the words
in the dark like a lover
We could count the stars
the shooting stars
And talk of lovers
through the ages
who had lived out
Of their dreams
Such will and spirit courage
they needed to live in a dream
To burn with every breath
so serene
As if they had been
the first to find love at all
Like Night and Twilight
They were the first
of lovers ever
Could we be like them
hold on to one another
until dawn comes
Then we'll fly off and dream
until Night and Twilight
Kiss again
My love
my one and only love
Let me take you out
under the moonlight
and show how
The Twilight loves the Night
Why he lives for an hour
of loving through lifetimes
of Longing
And sings his
moonlight serenade
