A long kiss goodnight (0:47)
by Rachel M.
 

The full moon at midnight
Shines brightly on the lovers
As they continue to say goodnight
Both knowing he has to go
For if he is late
It shall be a long time
Before they are alone again
With each kiss
It was harder to say no more
Slowly they began to part
To only holding hands
Looking deep
Into each other's eyes
He quickly pulls her close
For one last kiss goodnight
Again
Slowly
They begin to part
To only holding hands
As he begins to turn
She pulls him close
For one last quick kiss
He gets in his car
She looks on
Standing in front of her door
As his car leaves her sight
Her heart is filled with joy
For she will see him tomorrow
At the stroke of midnight
