In the medieval night
|
'Twas love's design
|
And the sky was open
|
like a Valentine
|
All the lacy lights
|
Where wishes fall
|
And like Shakespeare's child
|
I wished on them all
|
|
Ahh to be your destiny
|
was all that I pursued
|
I could see the sights
|
from the lofty heights
|
But my heart obscured the view
|
|
I was looking for you
|
Looking for you
|
What could I do
|
I was looking for you
|
|
Along the black river
|
The ambassador jewels
|
And you were reflected
|
in all that I saw
|
In the towers of gold
|
In the wheel and wing
|
Gripping my senses
|
like an ancient claim
|
|
Many is the time I knelt in the light
|
appealing to all that I know
|
Guide my eyes and steps
|
that I may find love true
|
|
Refrain
|
|
Come on darlin'
|
All that hearts desire
|
was written before us
|
In the medieval fire
|
It was love's design
|
In the glittering stars
|
Like Shakespeare's child
|
To be where you are
|
|
From the Portobello Road
|
To the Port of Marseilles
|
Where the dervish turns
|
Where the wild goats play
|
|
Looking for you
|
I was
|
