Echappée Nocture

Echappée Nocture

by Joshua Silva

Do you recall all that beauty we saw

As we left on the rail that night

The moon was high but my spirit was low

Until I saw you sitting 'neath that moon's light

My heart jumped and I knew at once

Everything would be alright

If someone so free, someone so true

Could flash like lightening in my life

With the crack of thunder and beauty of heart

Someone like you, someone like you

I've always been searching for you

For you, for you, for you

We spoke for hours, we spoke so long

We knew we had to go somewhere

Where we had to go was really no concern

Only that we had to make that journey there

I would have gone anywhere

I should have gone anywhere

With you, with you

With you, with you

I still remember that look in your eyes

Like you found magic in some distant land

And I still remember your sweet embrace

When you caressed my face with those angelic hands

I can still taste your lips

I can still taste your lips

What a cruel God that must be out there

To bring us together only to tear us apart

Or maybe it's a kind God

That teaches Love lives only in the heart

No matter how near or how far

Forever and forever together we are

Forever and for ever

Till death do us part

For better or worse

Our love is our heart

Our love is our heart

But everything is alright

If, baby, just for one night

Everything is alright

Tonight

We're shining so bright

So bright, so bright

So bright, so bright

We're in Heaven tonight

Tonight
