Longfellow serenade, such were the plans I'd made,
For she was a lady, and I was a dreamer,
with only words to trade.
You know that I was born for a night like this.
Warmed by a stolen kiss, for I was lonely..
and she was lonely.
Ride, come on baby, ride..let me make your dreams..come..true.
I'll sing my song..let me sing my song..
let me make it warm..for..you.
I'll weave this web of rhyme upon this summer night.
We'll leave this worldly time on his winged flight.
Then come, and as we lay, beside this sleepy glade..
There I'll sing to you..my Longfellow serenade.
Longfellow Serenade, such were the plans I made.
But she was a lady..as deep as the river..
And through the night, we stayed.
And in my way, I loved her as none before.
Loved her with words and more..for she was lonely..
and I was lonely.
Ride, come on baby, ride..let me make your dreams..come..true.
I'll sing my song..let me sing my song..
let me make it warm..for..you.
I'll weave this web of rhyme upon this summer night.
We'll leave this worldly time on his winged flight.
Then come, and as we lay, beside this sleepy glade..
There I'll sing to you..my Longfellow serenade. (Fade.)
A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
