Nightlong Testo

Come to see and speak with me
"Life is lonely," someone said, but I was spellbound
and could only nod my head

A dancer from a dream, a footstep away from me

Another time near the water
standing on the Singing Sands
watching ships from other lands
I turned my gaze and she was there
spinning slowly by the water
From somewhere the music caught her
and carried her away
I was spellbound

A dancer from a dream, a footstep away from me

I've followed her footprints but they disappear
And sometimes I think it's her singing I hear
Through years of eluding me I finally one night
sat at my mirror longing for the sight
Lo! She appeared and didn't flee
The dancer I had sometimes seen
was laughing looking back at me.
