Moonlight Riding the Oceans Tide

Moonlight riding the oceans tide Covers images of love pressed into the sand And smoothes the beaches to hide Evidence of lovers woman and man Man chases woman in playful flight Laughter wakes the still of the night He catches her, the figures bind The ocean whispers a mist fine Ruby lips I press next to mine A turtle lays her eggs which will hatch in time Emotions of love flame the night Passions of flesh that turn sweat bright Man and woman together tight Lovers alone on a beach at night The moon looks down to see Embarrassed he hides behind masking clouds Winds blow the ocean breeze Soft rain falls, lovers run under towels Picking up belongings running to the car They sit and watch the storm as if from afar The turtle returns to the sea The lovers drive back to the city
