"Moon-Amber Nights " / Charles
Song lyrics, added: 6/10/2007, Passion Lyrics by: Charles Inspired by: Leonard Cohen Viewed: 132 times That moon-amber night
That we fell down in the field
I held you so tight
That our souls had to yield

Bridge
You started to shiver
Like ripples on the river
But our hearts were full
And we were so very warm

v2
The words that you breathed
Were works of passion I craved
Your lovely breast heaved
Ripe grain stalks waved

Bridge
Thrush barely sleeping
River warily seeping
Our hearts were beating
Like boats in a storm

Chorus
We were
Brave summer lovers
Always off together
Scorning the others
Interlocked forever
We hid in the shadows
Made love 'neath the willows
Always riding the storm

v3
Yes we counted every star
Gathered like fireflies
Stuffed inside a jar
Too in love to realize
Young hearts will be broken
Keep mine as a token
But tonight my love
We shall not be forlorn

v4
Those moon-amber nights
Can last into the winter
With all of our might
We continue to be tender
The cold makes us shiver
Burning down with fever
Our hearts grow dull
I'm to leave your father's farm

Chorus
We were
Brave summer lovers
Always off together
Scorning the others
Interlocked forever
We hid in the shadows
Made love 'neath the willows
Always riding the storm
