Sunset Cottage

If there was a way
To live inside a sunset
I'd build a little cottage made for two

I'd call you when it's ready
Lift you at the doorstep
Then carry you in my arms and bring you through 

The rooms adorned with orchids
The scent inside of lilacs
The colors of a sunset would abound

Your face a glowing candle
I'd keep it lit forever
Illuminated beauty would surround

My watch no longer needed
All care of time depleted
There's only you and your unending glow

To keep me right before you
Allowed now to adore you
For finally then my love could freely flow
