I seek only a long night’s relief
No matter how brief
I seek only somewhere to go
Where the pain I know will not follow

When first I looked into your eyes
Each breath became a thousand sighs
My heart drummed out thunder from within
Heaven touched my soul, the bell of destiny
began to toll first I looked into your eyes

Fireflies danced in my mind, to make me look again
Please make them go away, I do not wish to play
Sodden clouds of cold and grey came and wisped them away
Each second became eternity, between us lay infinity

Let the moon come for me, cold and deep in the sky
Set my soul free in a universe that I have never known
Whispering willows silently weep, and birds in the sky cry
A rose once beautiful and proud to bloom
Now shedding its petals as tears from my eyes

I seek only a long night’s relief
Not another caress or touching of hands
Anguish fills my thoughts, more then I can bear
Confusion I eat to fill my life, non-stop wilting of a heart

Now I look for my final sleep of relief
Closing my eyes awaiting sleep
Knowing wishing to do so I cannot deny
