Oh Beautiful Night

Oh beautiful night,
A velvet sky studded with shining teardrops,
Teardrops from a tired eye�
Voices linger, carried by the wind,
Voices from the grave
Emotionless, yet comforting�
Oh beautiful night,
When the moon shall set,
Shelter me from the grievous sun,
Hide my eyes from the pain,
Cloak me in darkness�
Oh beautiful night,
When love shall reign with a gentle hand
And tired teardrops like stars will fall
And cleanse this dying heart�
Oh beautiful night
Stay a little longer, for
The dawn frightens me...
