Lyrics

Sit beside the crackling fire
Outside the cold north winds blow

The dancing of the candlelight
On your sweet face how it makes it glow

Though archived in memory
Was it really so long ago

We sipped the wine and felt so fine
And let our feelings show


Talking ?bout Monticello Nights
The time and the place, how they felt so right

Now I can never be the same
I long to hold you there and gently call your name

There amidst the garden
Beneath the harvest moon

I pledged my vow of love to you
As the wind it sang its tune

Now like crimson filagree
The details come so clear

To have you and to hold you
And know that you are near

Those were our Monticello Dreams
The time it poured like wine and gently flowed downstream

Now when I go to close my eyes
Your face comes shining thru like stars up in the skies

Oohh can I hold you once again
The sweet surrender with my truest friend
Oohh the nectar of your warm embrace
It?s late September and I can?t forget that place
