Moonlight Bay

Moonlight Bay

They cast a moonlight shadow on those lonely midnight sands

Stumbling, not strolling two forbidden lovers hand in hand

The purest of thoughts, the sweetest of sorrows

In the emptiness of dawn there would be no tomorrow

They tenderly stripped, not for sweet sexual union intent

But seeking Poseidon’s watery judgement on love that was sent

Two doomed lovers moved unwavering toward the silvery ghost

They we compelled by their vows to seek their end with the silvery host

As the waters closed over, the two did submit

But not for an instant did their hands lose their grip

As sun rose the lovers where missing

Davy alone sees them still kissing
