I wished to be alone with you . . .

I wished to be alone with you
this dreamy night to share
to feel your breath upon my cheek
to feel the softness of your hair

So i brought this pen and paper
upon now which i write
so i may share my love with you
this nice yet lonely night

The dancing of the flame
the slowly creeping tide
brings a tear of sorrow
wishing you were at my side

The distant music playing
beneath this silver crescent moon
i sit here writing, on the sand
wondering if i'll see you soon

With everything so perfect
yet everything so wrong
the band off in the distance
plays another lonely song

Two lovers walking barefoot
along the ocean's shore
brings yet another tear of longing
and makes me want you more

And now i feel upon my face
a single drop of rain
which seems so oddly out of place
a little like my pain

So i sit here now, in paradise
having never felt this blue
i got my wish to be alone
why couldn't it be with you . . .
