We Once Danced Into the Midnight Rain
We Once Danced Into The Midnight Rain
We once danced into the midnight rain
while our love was growing deep and firm
All was exciting nothing was ever plain
"love you baby", was our endearing term
We saw life mellow within our world
as sweet days and nights floated away
Into a loving lake we were thus hurled
making our love in that secluded bay
Yes there, time stood ever so still
testament to our love's greatest powers
Racing up to top every beautiful hill
never a care for the many wasted hours
That summer, cool and so very gay
resting beneath our favorite oak tree
Never a thought of ever having to pay
for nothing, nothing in life is free
Wet hair, shining in that glowing light
so refreshed after our picnic foray
Longing for the romance of coming night
you and I, we both always getting our way
We once danced into the midnight rain
while our love was growing deep and firm
All was exciting nothing was ever plain
"love you baby", was our endearing term
