Beneath the Moon

I yearn to cross the crystalline lagoon
To reach your bungalow beneath the stars
And bless you with a love that's always true
A love that has no equal-has no par

To kiss your emerald eyes with golden lips
Caress your ivory skin with silver hands
Submerge you into everlasting bliss
As we make love upon the diamond sand.

While whisperings of fervor fill the air
and iridescent hummingbirds give song
and lilting butterflies without compare
Convince you that to me you now belong.

Permit me cross the crystalline lagoon.
To reach your bungalow beneath the moon
