So deep is the night,
No moon tonight,
No friendly star to guide me with its light.
Be still my heart,
Silent lest my love could be returning,
From a world far apart.
So deep is the night,
Oh lonely night,
On broken wings my heart has taken flight,
And left a dream.
In my dream our lips are blending;
Will my dream be never ending?
Will your memory haunt me till I die?
Alone am I,
Deep into the night,
Waiting for the light.
Alone am I,
I wonder why,
I wonder why.
In my dream our lips are blending;
Will my dream be never ending?
Will your memory haunt me till I die?
Alone am I,
Deep into the night,
Waiting for the light.
Alone am I,
I wonder why,
I wonder why.
