Sunset falls in painted colors
Gracefully behind the trees
Peaking through the swaying branches
As they dance within the breeze
Casting shadows on the grass
Where two lovers lie in wait
Impatiently for the darkness
Hurry sundown, don't be late
Eagerly they watch in silence
Clouds roll slowly 'cross the skies
So soon now the day will vanish
And the glow within their eyes
Will be all the light they need
Crickets sing their serenades
Harmonizing with the song
Of love they hear as daylight fades
Closer now, horizon's lips
Drink the last of mother sun
Hearts and hands begin to tremble
So soon now will have begun
Heaven on a hidden field
Where two lovers lie in wait
Impatiently for the darkness
Hurry sundown, don't be late

eagerly they watch in silence
clouds roll slowly 'cross the skies
so soon now the day will vanish
and the glow within their eyes
will be the light they need
crickets sing their serenades
harmonizing with the song
of love they hear as daylight fades
Genuinely Perfect!!!!
Take care,
