Moonlight spills through my window
as the Clock gently strikes 12
It's two nights running
and I crave to hear his familiar sound.
I stare down the stairs
a million times today
your silhouette lingering
not fading as the dwindling stars.
In the beginning, we were not friends
I didn't even like you at all
now my heart vows, a sacred space
forever bound, forever found.
The flowers are still fresh
as the bloom of the dawning Sun
I smell your perfume in the couch
warm as your kiss on my lips.
Staring down the lighted hallway
waiting for your slow steps up
a little woman on her knees
Loving you every step of the way.
I've memorized your heart
every single beat and contour
a pleasure of a lifetime affair
listening to your steps In the hallway.
At the pale glow of the street lamps
echoes of footprints hurrying home
our lyrics sweeter than ever
as I see you standing right here.
