Lovelight Night
Story
This is the second in a series of songs (the third is The Candle Still Burns) written long ago, all centering around the imagery of love as candlelight.
Lyrics
When we're together, love, my heart beats fast for you
Such love I feel now that we are two
I've been away too long to give you what is due
How I long to be home with you
Light me a candle when I'm coming home to you
Give me your lovelight; show the way
I've been adventuring, but now I'm coming home
Your love's light is brighter than the day
I've written stories and sung tales of epic deeds
Some of which I doubt, and some I believe
Sometimes I'm on the land and sometimes on the sea
What is it worth until you're with me?
Light me a candle when I'm coming home to you
Give me your lovelight; show the way
I've been adventuring, but now I'm coming home
Your love's light is brighter than the day
I was alone until you came my way
I have never been so happy as today
Light me a candle when I'm coming home to you
Give me your lovelight; show the way
I've been adventuring, but now I'm coming home
Your love's light is brighter than the day
