Selene's River (Formerly "Moon River")
I wont sit and wait
I wont dance and sing you to sleep
I wont worry when I close my eyes tonight
When I run to the river
Clothes stripped as I stride
When I run to the river
Your body right by my side
When I jump in
Cool calming Moon River…
Wash me away
I wont worry any more
Two million suns and stars, what are they shining for?
They all shine for you
Watch what that moonlight does to you…
When I jump in the water
So naked and free
When I splash in the water
Your eyes holding me
When I pull you close
Drift in the open river
You’re so tempting and desired…
Cool calming Moon River…
Wash me away
Your fingers to my lips
My hands on your hips
Just hold me in this way
Float on down the glistening current
Moon river wash our tears away…
