We Kiss In A Shadow

We kiss in a shadow,
 We hide from the moon,
 Our meetings are few,
 And over too soon.
 We speak in a whisper,
 Afraid to be heard;
 When people are near,
 We speak not a word.
 Alone in our secret,
 Together we sigh,
 For one smiling day to be free
 To kiss in the sunlight
 And say to the sky:
 "Behold and believe what you see!
 Behold how my lover loves me!"
 We kiss in a shadow,
 We hide from the moon,
 Our meetings are few,
 And over too soon.
 We speak in a whisper,
 Afraid to be heard;
 When people are near,
 We speak not a word.
 Alone in our secret,
 Together we sigh,
 For one smiling day to be free
 To kiss in the sunlight
 And say to the sky:
 "Behold and believe what you see!
 Behold how my lover loves me!"
