Moonlight Caress

Set like a jewel

in the black velvet of the night,

you'll listen to my breath

in this clear quiet darkness

and you'll see a warm tear

run down my cold face.

Oh, virgin silk-skinned moon

dance with me until the dawn

oh, virgin queen of the night,

up there on your enchanted throne

and I gaze at your whiteness

reflected in the lake waters

...and I'll see my image

in the weak waves

and I'll be able to hear

your plaintive voice

comfort my soul.

Oh, virgin silk-skinned moon

oh, virgin queen of the night.
