quiet..nights

Quiet nights of quiet stars

Quiet cords from my guitar

Floating on the silence

that surrounds us



Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams

Quiet walks by quiet streams

And the window looking on

the mountains and the sea

how lovely

This is where I want to be

Here with you so close to me

Until the final flicker of life's ember



I who was lost and lonely

Believing life was only

A bitter tragic joke

Have found with you

The meaning of existence

Oh my love



This is where I want to be

Here with you so close to me

Until the final flicker of life's ember

I who was lost and lonely

Believing life was only

A bitter tragic joke

Have found with you

The meaning of existence

Oh my love




...maybe someday...
...maybe not...
...but still...
...just the thought makes my soul breath...
.
