Longfellow Serenade
|
Such were the plans I'd made
|
For she was a lady
|
And I was a dreamer
|
With only words to trade
|
|
You know that I was born
|
For a night like this
|
Warmed by a stolen kiss
|
For I was lonely
|
And she was lonely
|
|
Ride, come on baby, ride
|
Let me make your dreams come true
|
I'll sing my song
|
Let me sing my song
|
Let me make it warm for you
|
|
I'll weave his web of rhyme
|
Upon the summer night
|
We'll leave this worldly time
|
On his winged flight
|
Then come, and as we lay
|
Beside this sleepy glade
|
There I will sing to you
|
My Longfellow serenade
|
|
Longfellow serenade
|
Such were the plans I made
|
But she was a lady
|
As deep as the river
|
And through the night we stayed
|
And in my way I loved her as none before
|
Loved her with words and more
|
For she was lonely and I was lonely
|
|
Ride, come on baby, ride
|
Let me make your dreams come true
|
I'll sing my song
|
Let me sing my song
|
Let me make it warm for you
|
|
I'll weave his web of rhyme
|
Upon the summer night
|
We'll leave this worldly time
|
On his winged flight
|
Then come, and as we lay
|
Beside this sleepy glade
|
There I will sing to you
|
My Longfellow serenade
|
|
Weave your web of rhyme
|
Upon the summer night
|
We'll leave this worldly time
|
On your winged flight
|
