You and Me

The water is calm tonight
And the sand is silky white
The stars wink in the mirrored sea
And there’s no one here but you and me

There’s sadness in the moon
Like notes of a long-lost tune
Drifting ‘cross the moaning sea
And there’s no one here but you and me

The distant northern shore
Will call my name no more
In your arms I’ll always be
When there’s no one here but you and me

My dreams of long ago
Melt in the moon-blanched glow
There’s no place else I’d rather be
When there’s no one here but you and me
