In the late of the evening the sun goes down,
The moon raises and cools the town.
The wolf howls - sings to the moon;
And Autumn lovers swoon.
The waters lap against the shore
As many times after as before.
The sand of the beach without a dent -
Except where lovers past event.
And the sky is clear and the stars abound
Lovers coo heard all around.
A man with lovers embrace does lie
Without a word he sings a lulliby;
To calm her beating heart.
With freshest repart
Replays the song in the pale moonlight
Much to his lovers warm delite.
"Must I say this? To let you know,
How much I do love you so."
"This: my reply must be,
Your love does set me free."
"May I yet again feel your skin?"
"Only soft touch is my answer's kin."
And so the night goes on,
Moon and stars watch till dawn
This lovers' playground
Skin to skin, around and around.
