Again

I was in love
Once long ago
Deeply, madly
Like never before

I was in love
Those days are gone
A faded memory
Nothing more

That was pure madness
Dance of insanity
Desire, sadness
Ghost whirl of eternity

I was then both alive and dead
So pale and faded
Though with fire within
Until it all was gone one day

Years passed by and then
I’m finally alive again
Another smile, but the fire’s the same

Another dream, another feel
Still beating heart hopes deep within
For one more day, another night
Embraced with love and sweet moonlight

One day again I am in love
With deep dark eyes
And the same old song
Through moonlit nights

Another day, another night
I bear within this dear delight
To be cherished and loved indeed
For who I am with all my sins
