This night I kneel beside thee
You’ll breathe me in and set me free
Out from your lips my soul will rise
And on the wings of night we’ll fly
Far away, forever more
As daylight’s embers pale and fade
And fall into midnight’s shade
I’ll sleep, sleep
Sweet sleep
Golden halo carry me
In your warm glow for all eternity
Far away, forever more
The circles of light spiral around me
Lifting me up, turning slowly
The pieces of night will never again be
Leaving me lonely
Tonight I lie with death my bride
And with her kiss my pain has died
With night my bed and death my sleep
With you my stone and I, my wreath
Far away, forever more
