My eyes rest upon the darkness of a moonlight stroll
I’ll savor the silence of the night as it falls upon my soul

I’ll nevermore lay my eyes upon the midnight sky
Without the heart-stirring release of a tender sigh

And the gentle company of sweet recollections
Recalling moments of us as flashes and reflections

I’ll share my gaze upon the stars with these blissful memories
My soft voice calls out to you. Can you hear me in the breeze?

My head will rest upon the silky pillows of clouds for a while
In the darkness, can you feel my hands? Can you see my smile?

Can you see the stars blossom in the shadows of the night?
Hold me in your dreams until the moon falls out of sight

Until the stars disappear to sleep inside the light of day
The solace of your singing voice keeps my darkness at bay

As the sun coaxes the moon away from its lofty position
Your eyes melt into light like a prism cut with precision

I’ll trace the outline of your smile the stars have drawn
And I’ll see your face sketched on the canvas of the dawn
