Lyrics
0:45He said I must be dreaming
0:51But I thought I heard the sound
0:55The sound that lovers make
0:57As they drop down from the window
1:02Quiet as cats across the courtyard
1:07Moving from shadow to shadow
1:10Past the guards to the forest
1:15So quiet in her still reflection
1:20Drawing them down drawing them down to the lake
1:25To the centre of her attention
1:38Steal the moon tonight
1:45Before the morning
1:47Steal the moon tonight
1:54I just love a good mystery
2:22And on the West Bank a boat's being pulled
2:27Across the sands they move so softly
2:33Slip into water
2:35Oars dip don't break the moon's reflection
2:40And drift like a cloud
2:44To the centre
2:45Beneath her cool attention
2:53Still water
3:01Still water
3:06Steal the moon tonight
3:13Before the morning
3:15Steal the moon tonight
3:25I want to drown in your moon dream
3:29I've seen you rising from shore to shore
3:33I want to drown in your moon dream
3:38I've seen you rising
3:41Steal the moon tonight
3:50Shine
3:59Shine
4:08Shine
He said I must be dreaming But I thought I heard the sound The sound that lovers make As they drop down from the window Quiet as cats across the courtyard Moving from shadow to shadow Past the guards to the forest So quiet in her still reflection Drawing them down drawing them down to the lake To the centre of her attention Steal the moon tonight Before the morning Steal the moon tonight I just love a good mystery And on the West Bank a boat's being pulled Across the sands they move so softly Slip into water Oars dip don't break the moon's reflection And drift like a cloud To the centre Beneath her cool attention Still water Still water Steal the moon tonight Before the morning Steal the moon tonight I want to drown in your moon dream I've seen you rising from shore to shore I want to drown in your moon dream I've seen you rising Steal the moon tonight Shine Shine Shine
