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