Kooper The mystic smoke of our encounter Disappears through the window tram And you can translate through my eyes And you can tell how glad I am To be here, to be near Beside you, my love The tragic misadventures of a summers afternoon Where the neighbors hide behind the fence And howl at the moon Oh I'm not scared, my soul is bared Beside you, my love
The wizard in his tower He looks down in angry rage Another sun, it is closing in And he cannot write a page Though he could score and so much more Beside you. my love Silver beams of moonlight They cross your face and they make me strong Give me strength throughout a lifetime To be tall where I belong To be here, to be near Beside you, my love
