When Night Falls

When night falls: a dark blanket, casting round enchanted spells; My lowly soul, its respite finds in her bosom so warm and swell… My grieving mind and lonely heart they cast their fears far-far behind. I close my eyes and fly away, a gallant knight to my cause true; My fantasies, they become real as she spreads her rosy hue… My heart is glad, my soul is gay for all my fears she calmly stills. But when the dawn barges in... Spiraling through realmless space, ushering in grave reality… Cruel hands, they smack my face for I am guilty, guilty as sin to wish night lasted eternity!
