Midnight Sun (11-10-47) |
Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice, |
Warmer than the summer night |
The clouds were like an alabaster palace |
Rising to a snowy height. |
Each star it’s own aurora borealis, |
Suddenly you held me tight, |
I could see the Midnight Sun. |
I can’t explain the silver rain that found me Or was that a moonlight veil? |
The music of the universe around me, |
Or was that a nightingale? |
And then your arms miraculously found me, |
Suddenly the sky turned pale, |
I could see the Midnight Sun. |
Was there such a night, |
It’s a thrill I still don’t quite believe, |
But after you were gone, |
There was still some stardust on my sleeve. |
The flame of it may dwindle to an ember, |
And the stars forget to shine, |
Or I may see the meadow in December, |
Icy white and crystalline. |
But oh my darling always I’ll remember |
When your lips were close to mine, |
And I saw the Midnight Sun. |
