Lyrics Beneath A Moonless Sky - Andrew Lloyd Webber

Once there was a night
Beneath a moonless sky
Too dark to see a thing
Too dark to even try
I stood at your side
Tormented by my choice
I could't see your face
Yet trembled at your voice

And I touched you and I felt you
And I heard those ravishing rephrase
The music of your past
The singing in your veins
And I held you (And I touched you)
And embraced you (And I felt you)
And with every breath and every sigh
I felt no longer scared
I felt no longer shy
At last our feelings bared
Beneath a moonless sky

And minding the dark
A soul gazed into song
I looked into your heart
And saw you pure and whole
Cloaked under the night
With nothing to suppress
A woman and a man
No more and yet no less

And I kissed you (And caressed you)
And the world around us fell away
We said things in the dark
We never dared to say
And I caught you (And I kissed you)
And I took you (And I begged you)
With a need too urgent to deny
And nothing mattered then
Except for you and I
Again and then again
Beneath a moonless sky

And when it was done
Before the sun could rise
Ashamed of what I was
Afraid to see your eyes
I stood while you slept
And whispered a goodbye
And slipped into the dark
Beneath a moonless sky

And I loved you, yes I loved you
I'd have followed anywhere you led
I woke to swear my love
And found you gone instead
And I loved you (Oh I loved you)
And I left you (How I loved you)
And I had to, both of us why (We both knew why)
And yet I wont regret
From now until I die
The night I can't forget
Beneath a moonless sky

And now?
How can you talk of now
For us, there is no NOW!
