Tonight's Another Day

[couchgrouch]

Tonight is Another DayStone washed stars hover in the skyyellow moon rising like a rebel sunas wings of shadow begin to waketime walks toward the western hillsthe wind throws back its head and singsthat tonight is another dayI hear the squeak of our old sceen doorthen you sit beside me on our cool back porchyour eyes meet mineI hear what they saytonight is another dayshadows make the other senses shineso I smell the creek and hear nightbirds crytill moonlight paints treeleaves a silver greyour hands slip together easy and slowhow could we fold our hearts and fall asleepwhen tonight is another dayfireflies sparkle like the rings of Saturnwe dance in the glow of a hanging lanternI whisper lowlet's waltz the night awaycos tonight is another daymidnight draws a curtain of mistto conceal our passionate kissand desire knowswhat darkness can't saythat tonight is another day(c)2005 Robert George
