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
