You don’t really know me
You probably never will
But let me tell you just what I think
You and me together
...
Pebbles frozen in place beneath our feet
A smooth, gleaming pathway leading us away
Away down a cool dark river
Water slides across the earth, the flat stones
...
I do not dare give voice to my heart.
If it spoke, all my hopes would be tested against the will of the world
And vulnerable, my dreams would lie before you.
My secret loves and girlish fancies, all my imaginings and wishes
...
The dance floor was filled with glimmering bodies
All wound in blue and golden thread.
Through the glass roof shone the moon
And moonlight across the room was shed.
...
Dear, dear, dear boy.
Do you know how dear you are?
I’ll tell you, then, and I’ll speak plain –
I shan’t speak like this again –
...
Though crowds surround us
Lights and noise and music,
It is all a dim blur
Wheeling around the still, silent point
...
Who could have guessed that tonight
You would be here beside me
Staring at the same stars
Breathing the same cool air
...
I see your eyes
My soul flutters, flies
Dreams long slumbering arise
Soar into the moonlit skies
...
Is this it, after all?
Is this my fairytale
Which I’ve dreamed of for long?
Are you the knight I’ve searched for
...
In dim yellow lights
We stand together
Hands at sides
But thoughts on the other
...
