...and lead me into the cold embrace of the night Here we drown in our grief, drown in an absence of light Here is no shelter, no escape from our heart, Entwined in this tragic embrace I fear and bemourn to depart
When the shadows fall, And the sun sets in us all
Just silent hopes remain and the aching grief that grows Into a bottomless vale I fall - O, I give myself away... Away, far away, To this dim and misty place My heart reflects the night...
Languid moonshine, I bath my skin in thee O, may thy beauty be revealed in me Silent winds, whisper to me Thy songs of solitude and joy
And many a moon shall rise...
