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
