Tender is the Night by Will Neill

Tender is the Night
Of love’s once shining Star
By heartaches least wanted
I adore thee from afar

And if my soul could render
All of me I’d give to you
Along with Cupids sender

Fly an arrow strong and true
To pierce mine secret admiration
Which dwells in shadows blue
To crack this shell of coyness
That keeps me far from you

And if my courage is unleashed
With cupids perfect aim
I’ll find the strength and fortitude
To speak my humble name

But I can only dream of such liaison
In my secret prison cell
That binds me to uncertainty
So mine own passion I must quell

But if such a moment should arise
I fear rejection most
So I will hide among the shadows
And still remain a ghost
