Night Howl

As you step from the shower, my hearts afire

Here, in my ivory tower, I can hear the choir

Wrapped in a towel, you are the perfect Christmas present

The wolf in me wants to howl, at a gift heaven sent

As I bow my head, tears wheal in my eyes

The mirror turns red. my world is full of sighs

It was just a reflection, of a happy memory

There are so many in my collection, not all so complimentary

****

As you step from the shower, my hearts afire

Here, in my ivory tower, I can hear the choir

Wrapped in a towel, is the perfect Christmas present

The wolf in me wants to howl, at a gift heaven sent

****

We should have stayed at home, sat in front of a burning log fire

But like fools, we strayed into the fog, it was dire

It is a full moon, we get the scent

Our hunt for prey does not relent

Unaware that the price is too high

Unseen, through the mist, a silver arrow pierces her thigh

Setting forth a curse, for which there is no remedy

Now my visions of you, only exist in my memory

****

As you step from the shower, my hearts afire

Here, in my ivory tower, I can hear the choir

Wrapped in a towel, is the perfect Christmas present

The wolf in me wants to howl, at a gift heaven sent

The wolf in me wants to howl, at a gift heaven sent
