Smart Dad Living - Second Aubade Waltz (Ghosts Are the Rulers of Time)

The morning comes the night goes
When I'm holding her close
But in the daylight she cannot stay
She has to go
When the morning comes and the night goes
When I'm holding her close
But in the daylight she cannot stay
She's a ghost

Everywhere I go I feel her presence in the daylight
But at night is when
I get to see
I can touch, I can feel
She is real and she is here and we go dancing on the beach under the moon
But too soon from the East comes the light
So we dance the Aubade Waltz
Round and round
Rise and fall
Pressed breast to breast
Face to face
Whirling round counter-clockwise
Gliding gliding gliding gliding gliding on
Sliding on the sand
Until she has to let go of my hand
Light go away
Light go away
Light go away

Everyday I wonder if she'll return
My desire for her grows more as the sun sets
My face lifts toward Venus and the Moon
I lower my eyes and see her on the shore
She bids me come take her hand
Put my other arm around her waist
Instantly we start waltzing around the sand and she shows me
Another dimension and another place in time

We go waltzing like a hurricane
But in the daylight she cannot stay
She has to go
The morning comes the night goes
When I'm holding her close
In the daylight she can't exist
She's a ghost

If she looks at the sun, the sun goes blind
Unable to see the East and the West or ever find
If they're where you left them or if they've moved into her mind
Now she is the center and the ruler of time

Round and round
Rise and fall
Breast to breast
Face to face
Whirling round
Counter-clockwise
Gliding gliding gliding gliding gliding on
Sliding on the sand
Until she has to let go of my hand

She can lend the Moon, stay out late to play
She could tell the morning to go away
She can allow the sun to shine on tardy children
And the workers who get paid by the day
But she's protecting all the late night lovers
Who just started feeling gay under their covers

The rules of time do not apply to us
The rules of time do not apply to us

The morning comes the night goes
When I'm holding her close
But in the daylight she cannot stay
She has to go
The morning comes the night goes
When I'm holding her close
But in the daylight she cannot stay
She's a ghost

The morning comes the night goes
When I'm holding her close
But in the daylight she cannot stay
She's a ghost

Everywhere I go I feel her presence in the daylight
But at night is when
I get to see
I can touch, I can feel
She is real and she is here and we go dancing on the beach under the moon
But too soon from the East comes the light
So we dance the Aubade Waltz
Round and round
Rise and fall
Pressed breast to breast
Face to face
Whirling round counter-clockwise
Gliding gliding gliding gliding gliding on
Sliding on the sand
Until she has to let go of my hand

Light go away
Light go away
Light go away

Every day I wonder if she'll return
My desire for her grows more as the sun sets
My face lifts toward Venus and the Moon
I lower my eyes and see her on the shore
She bids me come take her hand
Put my other arm around her waist
Instantly we start waltzing around the sand and she shows me
Another dimension and (the rules of time do not apply to us) another place in time

We go waltzing like a hurricane

She's a ghost
