Lyrics

Night

And stars above that shine so bright

The mystery of their fading light

That shines upon our caravan

Sleep

Upon my shoulder as we creep

Across the sand so I may keep

The memory of our caravan

This is so exciting

You are so inviting

Resting in my arms

As I thrill to the magic charms

Of you

Beside me here beneath the blue

My dream of love is coming true

Within our desert caravan

Night, night, night, night

And stars above that shine so bright

The mystery of their fading light

That shines upon our caravan

Sleep

Upon my shoulders as we creep

Across the sand so I may keep

This memory of our caravan

This is so exciting

You are so inviting

Resting in my arms

As I thrill to the magic charms

Of you

Beside me here beneath the blue

My dream of love is coming true

Within our desert caravan

You

Beside me here beneath the blue

My dream of love is coming true

Within our desert caravan
