Come evening on - all the brightness be undone
I have borne my armour all the day
Come as you must with your dims and your dusks
These witching hoursfor those who have lost their way
The night's song is silencebut for the last birds call and cry
St Johns bell tolling the half hour
Along the quiet streets to the lake shore and up into the endless sky
Stay stay don't go - soulful spectre keep close
At my shoulder spirit whisper shadow speak
Make sweet all the bitter twists in the tale of the sleeper
Ever sleepless - oh the dreamer who no longer dreams of me
The late watch will we walk along that midnight mile?
Again ever again love
Will we lay on the hill in-between all of the stars in the endless sky
Yellow moon - over mountain rise
Dark heaven you set before my eyes
But I cannot hold you - tomorrow will come
And what is gone never quite returns
The night's song - and this for one far from its heartsick sigh
Again ever again love
Will we lay on the hill in-between all of the stars in the endless sky
