Lover mine, in the shady place
In fragrance of jasmine
of tropical fruits, and forgetfulness
Pearls wrapped around you
In dewy delight, embracing
your warmness, sweetness
Pearls of passionate dew
You were mine
Together in tenderness
In the time of sunset storms

Lover mine, in that paradise
You were there,
and we were as one
In the sultry dusk of loving
It seemed forever, embracing
In the long nights, hurting
From heat and injury
We consoled our lust,
In caring
It was the time of sunset storms

Lover mine, in a heady time
Of zany laughter
and sweet pursuits
Simple loving, endlessly
There was no reality here
Except intimacy of mind and body
A caring in loving... laughter
We walked hand in hand,
dreaming
It was the time of sunset storms

But time runs out,
And we separated in time,
destiny
Love there always was, and
delicate passion
In caring and wanting,
we endured
But time runs out, eventually
And we grew apart, in thoughts
It was the time of sunset storms
