Must Be May - 2019 - Song Lyric Sunday

Jim gives us the prompt of Dawn/Noon/Dusk/Midnight/Nocturnal/Diurnal for our songs today. 

I think this one by Barbra Streisand is very pretty.  It is from the second album she did with Barry Gibb called Guilty Pleasures. 

Golden Dawn

Barbra Streisand

One golden dawn
One summer night
With nothing left to say

We let the dream begin
It was carried on the wind
And it wandered away

One golden sky
One spark of light
Forever will remain

And the song of the storm
Brought us close, kept us warm
All alone making love
In the rain

Gone is the world outside
Home on the turning tide
True love will find the sun
And know the reason why

You make me hunger for
You whispered, "Mi amor"
Over the ocean's roar
And the night will become
Our golden dawn

Two hearts as one
No tears to cry
With you I have it all

If love can never die
I'm not afraid to fly
But how far must I fall

One silver song
One lullaby
For all the love we make

It's the look in your eyes
It's the moon on the rise
It's the sound of the heart
That you break

Gone is the dark of night
Call on the early glow
Send down the birds of love
That circle us below

And still I will hunger for
You whispering, "Mi amor"
Over the ocean's roar
And your arms reach for me

And the shine on the sea
And the night will become
Our golden dawn

Happy Sunday all.

Observations in October - 2018 - #SLS on Monday

I was at a very interesting vision workshop all day yesterday so I didn't have time to post my song for the Song Lyric Sunday bunch.  I like this song so I'm gonna post it now. 

It is called "Hideaway" and is from the "Guilty Pleasures" album by Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb.  This is one of my favorites.  I really like another song, "Come Tomorrow" a lot but that doesn't quite fit here.  They did a previous album together called "Guilty" which has some really good songs on it as well.

The lyrics:

Hideaway

Barbra Streisand

I saw you looking in the mirror
I saw you fighting with your conscious
I think you need a little time away
And I may give you mine

And you could find me in the moon glow
You find me underneath your pillow
And we can find a little hideaway
Where we can go

I'm in the corner with a friend of mine
I stood with my defenses down
So many things that bring you close to me
That we be led astray, the wonder of desire
To love the things we cannot touch

Maybe we turn and say goodnight and walk away
And then the story can go on without a single tear
You take a chance on it and change the history
And for a time, we fall in love with someone

So who am I to say the words that say
We have found each other?
Can we imagine any hideaway is right?
And our adventure down in paradise
Borne upon the wind and we are one with the night

Maybe we shuffle off to Rio
A little Rio de Janeiro
And then I get a little chance to say
I'm falling into you

And you and I can change the world if we just try
(Hideaway)
This lonely heart of mine has found a mission for your light
(In your world)
To make the sense of it and solve the mystery
(In my arms)
It's just the love you forever leave with someone

So who am I to say the words
That say we've found each other?
(Sunny day)
Can we imagine any hideaway is right?
(In your world)
And our adventure down in paradise
(In my arms)
Born upon the wind and we are one with the night

And our adventure down in paradise
Borne upon the wind
And we are one with the night
