Bless the Night

The crescent moon begins to fade As the darkness becomes light I lay silent in despair Letting go of yet another night If only I could hold back time Control the powers that be I’d wrap you in my loving arms And keep you here with me Damn the sun, that takes you Leaving only misery Your voice, your touch, your love Reduced to a memory I hear your whispers in the wind And in the shadows see your face The cries for passion engulf me I blame the sun for this barren place Alas another day has ended Oh dearest moon I call to thee For it is you that knows my pain And you that brings him back to me I slip between my sheets of silk Hungry for love, in need of rest I drift into this pleasure zone Then with your presence I am blessed I pray the night to shun the dawn And hear my silent screams My love for you will remain untouched Forever in my dreams
