Paradelle For Midnight Hearts

As love flew away at the breaking of day
As love flew away at the breaking of day
The night shed its tears on the ground
The night shed its tears on the ground
The day flew as the night ground shed its love
on the tears at the breaking away
Dawn and twilight so little time to meet
Dawn and twilight so little time to meet
The shadows with the light play hide and seek
The shadows with the light play hide and seek
So little shadows seek and meet the dawn
Play time with twilight and to hide the light
Dancing in the air the midnight sun returns
Dancing in the air the midnight sun returns
Mending the broken wings of the night song
Mending the broken wings of the night song
Wings of the midnight air mending returns
The sun song night dancing in the broken air
The broken shadows flew in the midnight twilight,
at the dawn, the dancing night wings mending
tears with time. The returns of the love song.
The breaking meet as on the play ground
The air, as the day shed of its sun and
so little, hide away and seek to the light
