Make Love Stay ~ Dan Fogelberg [ CC ]

Описание: "A sinuous piece written around a chapter of Tom Robbins' "Still Life With Woodpecker." Recorded(with my band) on a day off in L.A. while on tour in 1982. A musical question that, unfortunately, eludes me still." (Dan Fogelberg)
"Make Love Stay was based on a book written by Tom Robbins, called 'Still Life with Woodpecker' (1980). It was wonderful, it presumed the most difficult concept a man in the late twentieth century has to really wrestle with how to make love stay, I loved the idea and thought it was a great philosophic moment, so I just direct the music base to his idea..." ( Dan Fogelberg)

Make Love Stay ~ Dan Fogelberg (Lyrics)
Now that we love
Now that the lonely nights are over
How do we make love stay
Now that we know
The fire can burn bright or merely smolder
How do we keep it from dying away

Elusive as dreams barely remembered in the morning
Love like a phantom flies
But held in the heart it pales like the empty smile adorning
A statue with sightless eyes
(Chorus)
Moments fleet taste sweet within the rapture
When precious flesh is greedily consumed
But mystery is a thing not easily captured
And once deceased not easily exhumed

Now that we love
Now that the lonely nights are over
How do we make love stay
(Chorus)
Now that we love
Look at the moonless night and tell me
How do we make love stay
