James Intveld - Kermit Vale lyrics

It was dark on the night that we made love on the grave of Kermit Vale The full moon lay on clouds of coal like a prisoner's waiting jail We ran into the graveyard on a wager and a dare We both we young and crazy then and very hard to scare That's the night that we made love on the grave of Kermit Vale We stepped on every ancient rock and writings carved in stone We laughed so hard I slipped and fell on a grave that sat alone I wiped away the dirt that must have covered up the name It looked to be an older one destroyed by years of rain But I could see it plain the grave of Kermit Vale I held my girl with all my might and didn't speak a word We felt so weak and helpless that our cries were never heard We laid our naked bodies down upon the jagged stone She said from this day forward we would never be alone That's the night that we made love on the grave of Kermit Vale I looked my loved one in the eyes free from any shame The pa**ion that we felt that night would never be the same We were so desperately in love for love had just begun And so afraid that someday we would lose the other one That's the night that we made love on the grave of Kermit Vale And as we rose to leave I read again what we had seen That Mr. Vale was not a man but a boy of seventeen And as our full moon disappeared we walked home all the way And thought about the teenage boy who lay there in the grave That's the night that we made love on the grave of Kermit Vale
