The night was dim, and cool, and clear When I first laid eyes on you I sat down at the bar for beer And then my dreams came true A tall, pale, beauty the likes of which I’d never seen before At that moment there tore a stitch The world the same no more
Time meant nothing to either our beings Flesh faintly touching in the curves The road that takes us far from things Missing all attention it deserves My eyes they never left your locks Your smile stole all my speech Lying underneath those rocks I’ll sleep forever on that beach
