Let's Make This True

Oh, to dance free as the moon bathes us in light
Basking in God’s eternal luminary glow
This is what I wish for, this evening, my darling
This is my dream, I want you to know

The night’s music calls out to us both, melodically
As hand in hand, we traverse the glen
The moon catches and highlights your natural beauty
As I fall in love all over again

Praying this evening to never end,
Woe, if ever to end!

The perfumes of flowers, such as lilacs and roses
Entice us; carry us, to where we belong
Wafted on breezes, as on clouds we are floating
As we dance to evenings sweetest of songs

Where, here in embrace, I hold you so tightly
With never intention of letting go
My darling, our heartbeats, regale us in unison
As gently we sway, lasting and slow

Basking in God’s eternal luminary glow
This is my dream, I want you to know
