On a dim December morning A glass of "I forgot the name" I can't turn wine to water I won't come back again
And the minutes turn to hours I keep spinning cards that look the same And so I await the moment To talk to you
Please shine, oh night, my dear, embrace me
It's time again All light is banned My soul is free And blessed to see
Sometimes when I'm out of reach And sometimes when I'm there That is when our souls agree and join in solitaire Sometimes when my will to love has gone away That is when I hear your name
Now the pale sunlight is blinding It's here to claim my sanity And I just can't stand the waiting To revive ecstasy
Please shine, oh night, my dear, embrace me
It's time again All light is banned My soul is free And blessed to see
Sometimes when I'm out of reach And sometimes when I'm there That is when our souls agree to join in solitaire Sometimes when my will to love has gone away That is when I hear
I won't sustain another day My love, my darkness Daylight reflects my starving soul And open wounds for everyone to see
Sometimes when I'm out of reach And sometimes when I'm there That is when our souls agree to join in solitaire Sometimes when my will to love has gone away That is when I hear you
Sometimes when I'm out of reach And sometimes when I'm there That is when our souls agree to join in solitaire Sometimes when my will to love has gone away That is when I hear your name
