Dm
The sun is sleeping quietly
Dm               F
Once upon a century
F
Wistful oceans calm and red
                        Dm
Ardent caresses laid to rest

Dm
For my dreams I hold my life
                       Bb
For wishes I behold my night
                        Gm
The truth at the end of time
                     Dm
Losing faith makes a crime

  Dm
I wish for this night-time
   Bb         F
To last for a lifetime
    Gm        Dm
The darkness around me
       Bb         F
Shores of a solar sea
Dm                  Bb            C
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
F
Sleeping
C
Weeping
     Dm
With you

Dm
Sorrow has a human heart
Dm                      F
From my God it will depart
F
I'd sail before a thousand moons
                       Dm
Never finding where to go

Dm
Two hundred twenty-two days of light
                       Bb
Will be desired by a night
                         Gm
A moment for the poet's play
                              Dm
Until there's nothing left to say

 Dm
I wish for this night-time
   Bb         F
To last for a lifetime
    Gm        Dm
The darkness around me
       Bb         F
Shores of a solar sea
Dm                  Bb            C
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
F
Sleeping
C
Weeping
     Dm
With you
