The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century.
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caresses laid to rest
For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my nights
A truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime.
Chorus:
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time
The darkness around me — shores of a solar sea
Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping, weeping with you.
Sorrow has a human heart
From my God it will depart
I`d sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go
Two hundred twenty days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet`s play
Until there`s nothing left to say.
Chorus.
Chorus:
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time,
The darkness around me — shores of a solar sea.
Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping, weeping with you.
