Listen to Under The Same Moon by Richard Charles Stevens (Metaphysica Suite)
Under the same moon
We’ll soon be home
.
Distant hearts they whisper sweetest nothings
Can you hear
Huddle close and I shall do my uppermost to keep you near
Fingertips to fingertips
Need never feel alone
For under the same moon we’ll soon be home
.
Under the same moon
There will be kisses to confer
No great rush to touch the void
Too much ado adjoining burns
With such a choice subject to learn
Each kiss shall find its voice in turn
Even when asleep
I’m falling deeper
When our lips be pursed
Under the same moon
We bless the full eclipse and lift its curse
Under the same moon
We bless the full eclipse and lift its curse
.
Lift its curse
.
Making love could not be any farther from my mind
Breathing in your air for the first time
Nothing to declare that makes me any less than gentleman
Never less committed to a crime
.
Criminal procedures mean permitting no restraint
Chomping at the bit and only fit to bolt the gate
Standing in the grace of Venus
Under the same moon
Feels far more attuned to faith to wait
.
Every leap of faith engaged will be the first
Therefore unique
Every twist of fate reiterates
Cascading romantique
Distant hearts imparting sweetest nothings to the ears
Listen hard
You may hear the percussion of my tears
Wish to see me weep
Then please do see me in this moment
For bittersweet as it may seem
Each beat of me is stolen
.
Each beat of me is stolen
.
Making love could not be any farther from my mind
Breathing in your air for the first time
Nothing to declare that makes me any less than gentleman
Never less committed to a crime
.
Here we are free
No decree to be passed
Forthright of venture
Momentous of calm
Gentle in charm
Extended of palm
As we reach for the light
Fundamental in psalm
.
Not a thought towards senseless alarm
Ascending
Unendingly
Meant to be
Soon to be
Fused to the stars
Fused to the stars
.
Merged in a blur of each colour and shade
Fierce supernova
Exploding in flame
.
Distant hearts they whisper sweetest nothings
Can you hear
Each sweet beat a keepsake
Every bleed a souvenir
.
Painting the skyline
Defining the primary
Marvelling at the sensational finery
.
Fingertips to fingertips
Need never feel alone
For under the same moon we’ll soon be home
.
Breathtaking sights for delight to recline in
The finest of dining
For binary tastes
.
Distant hearts they whisper sweetest nothings
Can you hear
Each sweet beat a keepsake
Every bleed a souvenir
.
Gowned in the greatest renown
Crowned of faith
Profound of devout
Proud regalia famed
.
Fingertips to fingertips
Need never feel alone
For under the same moon we’ll soon be home
.
Clear in direction
Pure of reflection
Something sincere
Of the sheerest affection
.
Distant hearts they whisper sweetest nothings
Can you hear
Each sweet beat a keepsake
Every bleed a souvenir
.
Empowered to shower the thirsting terrain
With the rains of eternal refrain
.
Distant hearts they whisper sweetest nothings
Can you hear
Each sweet beat a keepsake
Every bleed a souvenir
.
Empowered to shower the thirsting terrain
With the rains of eternal refrain
.
Fingertips to fingertips
Need never feel alone
For under the same moon we’ll soon be home
.
