Andrew Lloyd Webber - Beneath a Moonless Sky lyrics

I should have known that you'd be here I should have known it all along This whole arrangement bears your stamp You're in each measure of that song How dare you try and claim me now? How dare you come invade my life? Oh, Christine, my Christine In that time when the world thought me dead My Christine, on that night just before you were wed Ah, Christine, you came and found where I hid Don't you deny that you did That long ago night That night Once there was a night beneath a moonless sky Too dark to see a thing, too dark to even try I stole to your side to tell you I must go I couldn't see your face but sensed you even so And I touched you And I felt you And I heard those ravishing refrains The music of your pulse The singing in your veins And I held you And I touched you And embraced you And I felt you And with every breath and every sigh I felt no longer scared I felt no longer shy At last our feelings bared Beneath a moonless sky And blind in the dark, as soul gazed into soul I looked into your heart and saw you pure and whole Cloaked under the night with nothing to suppress A woman and a man, no more and yet no less And I kissed you And caressed you And the world around us fell away We said things in the dark We never dared to say And I caught you And I kissed you And I took you And caressed you With a need too urgent to deny And nothing mattered then Except for you and I Again and then again Beneath a moonless sky And when it was done before the sun could rise Ashamed of what I was, afraid to see your eyes I stood while you slept and whispered a goodbye And slipped into the dark beneath a moonless sky And I loved you Yes, I loved you I'd have followed anywhere you lead I woke to swear my love And found you gone instead And I loved you (How I loved you) And I left you (How I loved you) And I had to, both of us knew why We both knew why And yet I won't regret From now until I die The night I can't forget Beneath a moonless sky And now How can you talk of now? For us, there is no now
