Paroles de When Moonlight Sleeps

Words and music by Terry Taylor
©1986 Broken Songs (ASCAP)
Yes, I will be your priest and build a Holy fane
In untrodden regions of my heart unclaimed
And in the very midst of this quietness
Imaginary sanctuary will I dress
Chorus:
When moonlight sleeps on the frosted hill
I see your love come dance in the misty vale
At your gentle pass I go remembering
About the fragrant woods, of every vanished spring
Let me be your choir, let me be your own
And you, the heart's desire, fill my heart alone
I search the dreamy night
In faithfulness I stop to rest
And light the light
(Chorus)
My love says "Rise, my love
And come away,
Your home is in the moonlight
Mine's in another day"
So I launch out on the tide
Across the unknown sea
My love calls to me
Calls to me
Calls to me And in the very midst of this quietness
Imaginary sanctuary will I dress
(Chorus)
