REWRITTEN LINES

[Verse 1]
I’ve seen you sitting there, you've been here before,
Always leave me wanting, restless for more.
But never quite like this—lamp glow on your face,
You must be from Heaven, not of this place.

[Pre-Chorus]
I come here to write, to chase down the muse,
But now all my words are getting lost in you.

[Chorus]
Lines in the moonlight, dancing on your skin,
Pulling me closer, don’t know where you end or I begin.
You smile like a secret, a spark I can't define,
I thought I came to write—
But darling, you just rewrote mine.

[Verse 2]
You asked if I’d share, said “let’s trade a few dreams,”
Your voice soft as verses in unwritten themes.
You opened your journal, I leaned in slow,
Two souls tracing stories the stars used to know.

[Pre-Chorus]
The night wrapped around us, so quiet, so still,
I reached for your hand, and time stood still.

[Chorus]
Lines in the moonlight, dancing on your skin,
Pulling me closer, don’t know where you end or I begin.
You smile like a secret, a spark I can't define,
I thought I came to write—
But darling, you just rewrote mine.

[Bridge]
Every heartbeat echoes, like a whispered song,
In this moment with you, I finally belong.
With every word you share, you paint a new scene,
Life feels like a canvas, vibrant and serene.

[Chorus]
Lines in the moonlight, dancing on your skin,
Pulling me closer, don’t know where you end or I begin.
You smile like a secret, a spark I can't define,
I thought I came to write—
But darling, you just rewrote mine.

[Outro]
So let’s fill the pages till the sun starts to rise,
With stories and laughter, just you and I.
In the glow of that lamp, I found more than a muse,
You’re the song in my heart, a love I won’t lose.

Very simple yet magically lyrical. A dance for the eyes as they read.

Yes indeed. I am so glad we moved out here in the country away from the luminous urban nights. Ah, my eyes just love the taste of the celestial night! Enjoyed this shared share. Peace and Love, Millard Lowe.
