I remember.............
That starry night we dreamed together on the beach
Gazing at the moonlight playing on the gently lapping waves
The night was chilly, crisp and clear
In the distance the sound of a night bird called
As the breeze stirred whispers through the pinetops;

Smoke from the nearby campfire drifted high overhead
Glittering flakes of burning ashes sparked against the night sky
You reached out and embraced me - held me close
To your chest and kissed my forehead
Then whispered in my ear some endearment I've forgotten
The night was filled with magic;

Seems like a lifetime ago
That enchanted encounter that sealed us
From that moment on for the rest of our lives
Although we may be far apart in distance
Still our hearts beat passionately in unison
And will continue to do so forever, I suppose.
