As the clouds dance
their pas de deux
In the blue reverie of
the night sky,
Moonglow reveals the
spirit of you,
And my heart is lifted
up so high.
In the blue reverie of
the night sky,
Stardust mingles with
the shooting stars,
And my heart is lifted
up so high
Above the treetops, so
very far.
Stardust mingles with
the shooting stars.
Birds serenade with
gentle lullabies
Above the treetops, so
very far
As wistful tears sting
my weary eyes.
Birds serenade with
gentle lullabies,
Invoking memories from
long ago.
As wistful tears sting
my weary eyes,
A restless breeze blows
through my window.
Invoking memories from
long ago,
My senses stir within,
the past reborn.
A restless breeze blows
through my window,
Imparting sweet essence
of apples and corn.
My senses stir within,
the past reborn,
Walking hand in hand
through fields of gold.
Imparting sweet essence
of apples and corn,
Countless chapters
remain unwritten, untold.
Walking hand in hand
through fields of gold,
The autumn colors paint
their brilliant hues.
Countless chapters
remain unwritten, untold.
Oh, to have just one
more day with you!
The autumn colors paint
their brilliant hues
As amber sun plays in
periwinkle skies.
Oh to have just one more
day with you!
I have much more to say
than a final goodbye.
As amber sun plays in
periwinkle skies,
My heart breaks with the
call of the solitary loon.
I have much more to say
than a final goodbye,
But the hour of parting
has come too soon.
My heart breaks with the
call of the solitary loon,
Moonglow reveals the
spirit in you.
But the hour of parting
has come too soon
As the clouds dance
their pas de deux.
