Moonlight and snow
Centuries ago
Seems like yesterday
Roving eyes and heart of clay

I heard your voice and lost my name,
Just a portrait with no frame
Out of focus, out of sight,
Drowning in the winter light.

I turned around and saw you there
Standing in the milky air,
Born of snow and cold as ice,
Touch of innocence and vice.

Dangerous eyes,
I knew it would be unwise
To freeze time and fantasize,
Wrapped up in your myth, i dream
Oh, it would seem,
It would seem
A far too complicated scheme.

Moonlight and snow
Centuries ago
Seems like yesterday
Roving eyes and heart of clay

I stole an hour of your time
Like a thief proud of her crime,
Sipped your words through passion's straw
Judging less and wanting more...

I'm standing nude within my mind
Fear and fantasy entwined,
Poured my story in your ear
With each word drawing you near.

Dangerous eyes,
I knew it would be unwise
To freeze time and fantasize,
Wrapped up in your myth, i dream
Oh, it would seem,
It would seem
A far too complicated scheme.
