Oh These Nights

The night came down to just you and me.  Everything was as calm as the sea. 
How are bodies met and our lips touched?  I felt your heart beat, so in tune with 
mine, as my breath got faster so did time.  I held your hand and you kissed my 
lips, we laid there together in pure bliss.  In the car I held you close and laid my 
head on your shoulder, you grasped my hands as it began to get colder.  Time 
past so fast and we couldn't let go of each other’s lips. I just wouldn't let go of 
your kiss.  The last day we spent together was like a world in Heaven, it can't 
even be explained, like why it's calm before the rain.  I love the way you smile at 
me when I sing to you, and there’s nothing else I'd rather do. You were so cute 
with the way you'd sing along with each word I sang.  And at that moment 
everything that I felt that could not be done, suddenly became I can.  With the 
moon in the sky we said good-bye, it was time for me to go, oh these nights’ will 
only know.
