I see only the night
I see only the night
And the darker things hidden from my sight
The shrouded wrongs torn away from what’s right
I see only the night
I see above, the moon and stars
Beyond her timeless face on earthen jars
And further still, from my bed to Mars
I see above, the moon and stars
I smell the damp of morning dew
When spirits wait “Come hither to”
Where Avalon mists embrace you
I smell the damp of morning dew
I feel her touch, but she is dark
A sleeping mass, off-white and stark
She’s left unseen on my heart, a mark
I feel her touch, but she is dark
I see only the night
Who sets the Sun in his endless plight
The bane of loved ones who walk in the light
I see only the night
