The sun is setting ever so gently Down upon the forested hills Of the McKenzie Valley Soon it will be night Soon the stars shall reign In this kingdom we have made Once I called you a jester, But now I see Under that facade, Is the hunter I have been waiting for So all I have to ask you, Is please stay here tonight We could dance Under the full moons light And when the morning comes You can leave Because I would find You are only in my dreams So stay here tonight With the winds whispering you name Just so I won't cry When the sun rises again Stay here, looking at my stream Living its life day to day Singing to me, Of so many loves, And that mine alone I can bear Stay with me, If only in my dreams Cause your Father doesn't know me You mother even hates me For taking away her little boy So we have to meet in the night To share our love Even if its just a dream, A simple vision, Thirty miles may not seem that far But it keeps you away from me And only in my heart. So stay with me Gazing at your image in the sky Calm me, cause tomorrow I may cry. Don't look now, But I can see the light, Of a new day upon us, No longer may you stay So leave my dreams SO I may lay in my bed Thinking of all You and I have said.Birth sign: Cancer
