Album: The Great Jon English
We met in the forest
As midnight grew near-ear
And we strolled hand in hand to the heath
And we lay side by side
As the firelight die-ied
On the soft mossy be-ed beneath
We took one stealthy glance
To the black of the hi-ill
And the silence banished our-our fears
You loved me, you made me
You changed me a ma-an
Cementing my soul with your tears
One stolen second from the life of a man
Is a nectar as sweet as the dew-ew-ew
And I would give anything to just once again
Make love by firelight with you
I touched your face
In the soft light of daw-awn
Then I silently cre-ept away-ay
And all that we had
Last night on the moor-oor
Was lost in the hard glare of day
One stolen second from the life of a man
Is a nectar as sweet as the dew-ew
And I would give anything to just once again
Make love by firelight with you
Firelight with you
