Tonight

Tonight my love, find me tonight
Tonight my love, fantasies ignite

Knowing each other only from our verse
In each other’s hearts we’ve been immersed
We can be all we’ve believed
Trust us to be all we have dreamed

Tonight my love, let it be tonight
Tonight my love, I am your delight

Find the place in me
You’ve been searching to be
There’s so much more to find
Than the dreams that lie within your mind

Tonight my love, open up and let us in
Tonight my love, let our love begin

Let us be our destiny
Breathe our fantasies into reality
Be bold and dare to dance with me
Be bold my love, from fears be free

Tonight my love, move towards me
Tonight my love, Romance me slowly, gently

Our bodies flowing together in time

Sunsets, red wine, in a love divine
The moments we’ve longed for with every part of our soul
Holding one another, two halves made whole

Tonight my love, tonight is our chance
Tonight my love, we begin our dance

Lead me, pull me close, I’m in your arms
Beguile me, hold me with your charm
I’m vulnerable with you, know your power
Move slowly, surely, win me over

Tonight my love, our love begins
Tonight my love, the night that brings
The shoe that fits, the hand in glove
Tonight’s the night two poets fall in love
