Roxy Music - Serenade lyrics

Darkness falls around your window pane
A light still burns
But just a smouldering flame
Is it the end of another affair
An open engagement with gloom
Or will you be smiling
When the sun conjures up
A broken spell au clair-de-lune?

Silhouette as you draw the shade
Cloak of night you know it's tailor made
G-Plan gymnastics by an everglow fire
Could never mean the same
As summer enchantment by an old mill stream
From courtly love to costly game

Maybe I'm wrong for seeming
Ungrateful, unforgiving
Oh how it hurts now you're finally leaving
I couldn't take anymore

Now's the time! Let's hide away
Sacred hours saved from yesterday
Boo hoo willows weep around you still
Mirror reflections of dew
But waterfall pages of an open book
Could shower new horizons soon call the tune
Will you swoon as I croon your serenade
