Slowly walk the western wave,

Spirit of the night

Leave your eastern cave

Wander over land and sea,

Chase away the light

In dreams of dark appear

Your mortal thoughts be heard in heaven

Driving everyone insane

Clothe yourself in capes of grey,

Stud your crown with stars

Blind the eyes of Day

The sun is set, all are asleep,

Only bats fly fast

And I in corners creep

Your mortal thoughts be heard in heaven

Driving everyone insane

I can't see clear through your mind

But I can feel the demons haunting you

I can't read it in your smile

Lady wouldst thou me

When I arose, the light was riding

High into the sky

How I wished for you

The dew was gone, day turned to rest

Like an unwanted guest

How I longed for you

Thy brother Death is also crying

To sleep near your side

And I replied...

Now I've lost the art of sleeping

And Death will come for me

Night, I love thee
