Moon Amber Night

That moon-amber night
That we fell down in the field
We held on so tight
That our souls had to yield
You started to shiver
Like ripples on the river
But our hearts were full
And we were both so very warm

chorus

v2
The words that you breathed
Were works of passion I craved
Your lovely breast heaved
As grain stalks waved
The thrush barely sleeping
River warily seeping
Our hearts were beating
Like two boats in a storm

Chorus
We were
Brave summer lovers
Always off together
Scorning the others
Interlocked forever
We hid in the shadows
Made love 'neath the willows
Always riding the storm
The talk of her father's farm

v3
Yes we counted every star
Gathered 'em like fireflies
Stuffed inside a jar
Too in love to realize
Young hearts will be broken
Keep mine as a token
Tonight my love
We shall not be forlorn

chorus

v4
Those moon-amber nights
Can last into the winter
With all of our might
We continue to be tender
The cold makes us shiver
Burning now with fever
Our hearts grow dull
I'm to leave your father's farm

chorus
