Our kiss goodbye – Poem / Song

Wow, so once again it’s been a while since I’ve posted… must do something about that!

I’m still working on this one so it’s subject to change. I’ve got the basics of the tune down but still sorting it out. This song is a bit strange in that there’s no chorus so I’ll be looking at that too… might just not have one. Maybe when I finish the music part of it, I’ll record it and post it… We’ll see. 

Our kiss goodbye

In the stillness of the night
under the shadow of the moon
we hold and kiss our kiss goodbye
in the stillness of the night

Our fingers linger with their touch
wondering when we’ll meet again
for that ways yours and this ways mine
in the stillness of the night

And then my heart takes to flight
as squeezing hands pull us back tight
I hold you close and say “love you”
Your eyes they tell me “love you too”

And then we gaze upon the moon
hear two love birds start to swoon
You put your head on me to rest
These evening times we share, the best

I know it’ll happen all too soon
under the shadow of the moon
we’ll have to kiss our kiss goodbye
in the stillness of the night

Until then I’ll hold you close
Let the night sounds serenade
We’ll dance and as I hold you near
whisper sweet things in your ear

As we’re dancing face-to-face
Lost in each other’s embrace
It’ll happen once again
We’ll kiss our golden kiss goodbye

Our hearts will linger in this place
Seeking one more embrace
Until then we’ll share the moon
In the stillness of the night
