Under the Night Sky

UNTIL DAWN

Verse 1

In the shadows of this night that's just beginning
I contemplate your silhouette, soft and tender
Your blonde hair cascades like I'm winning
All my dreams I no longer dare to surrender
Your beautiful hair dances beneath my fingers
Each strand tells a story kept secret
In your eyes I'm lost, where my soul lingers
This magic between us, nothing can defeat

Chorus

Until dawn, we will make love
Until dawn, it will be between us two
A passionate desire, so fierce and true
Like kissing our souls
Like holding our hearts
Until dawn, always until dawn

Verse 2

You are mine in this electric embrace
I am entirely yours, surrendered and free
Our bodies searching in an authentic chase
Two beings fused, finally unchained to be
Passion consumes us, takes us somewhere new
Each caress writes a poem on your skin
In this suspended moment, beyond the view
We are the ocean and the water within

Chorus

Until dawn, we will make love
Until dawn, it will be between us two
A passionate desire, so fierce and true
Like kissing our souls
Like holding our hearts
Until dawn, always until dawn

Bridge

And we'll make love again, so passionately
Again and again, without end, without bound
In this night that becomes our galaxy
Where every instant matters, where love is found

Final Chorus

Until dawn, we will make love
Until dawn, it will be between us two
A passionate desire, so fierce and true
Like kissing our souls
Like holding our hearts
Until dawn... until dawn
Always until dawn

OUTRO

And when the early morning light appears
When the first rays break through the curtain's veil
I'll keep within me the memory so dear
Of this night engraved, a burning trail
Your blonde hair scattered on the pillow white
Your peaceful breath against my naked shoulder bare
Our bodies entwined, our spirits in flight
This perfect communion, beyond compare
Dawn arrives gently, but I hold you still
I want to prolong this moment of eternity
Where our two souls became one single thrill
Where time had stopped, suspended in serenity
For until dawn we loved without shame or fear
Until dawn we burned with a thousand fires
And even if daylight makes the passion disappear
We'll carry within us these beautiful desires
Until dawn... until dawn...
This night will remain ours, forever ours alone...
