She Was There-Douglas Sills

[00:14.407]PERCY: [00:14.877]So many nights I have stood in the moonlight, [00:20.102]watching it fade into dawn, [00:25.352]wanting her back with me, warm in the moonlight, [00:29.898]knowing that moment was gone - [00:33.790]out of mind, out of sight, [00:37.708]'til the moon rose tonight ... [00:42.907]All at once I felt a chill. [00:48.340]In a spill of moonlight she was there. [00:53.773]Though we both held very still, [00:58.240]there was something pulling in the air. [01:03.439]When she whispered through the dark, [01:07.984]I tried hard to hold my ground. [01:12.608]I believed I had a choice [01:15.063]'til the music in her voice [01:16.944]turned my whole world around. [01:21.150]I would like to understand, [01:24.755]but the stars and I begin to blur ... [01:28.098]If she never touched my hand, [01:31.964]then what filled me with the feel of her? [01:35.622]In between us stood a wall. [01:39.148]In a flash it fell apart! [01:42.727]Is it possible she heard [01:45.026]ev'ry last unspoken word [01:46.959]racing out of my heart? [01:50.538]She never turned to me, [01:53.463]but suddenly [01:55.109]we had so much to share! [01:58.322]I never took her in my arms, [02:01.196]but she was there! [02:04.539]Oh, she was there! [02:09.973]No, I never pulled her in! [02:15.406]Still her tenderness was ev'rywhere! [02:18.358]Oh, she slipped beneath my skin, [02:22.250]just as if she'd always been right there! [02:27.004]Has she been there all along? [02:32.333]Was I too far gone to know? [02:39.961]What a fool I must have been, [02:42.364]for how could I pull her in [02:45.917]when I've never let her go!
