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.
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...
222 days of light
will be desired by a night.
A moment for the poet`s play -
until there`s nothing left to say...
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.
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.
