Line 13: Line 14:
I hold my breath for the sun to fall,  
I hold my breath for the sun to fall,  


For in the hot collapse of day, I'm brought to you.<Br>While Reithwin sleeps, the world entire is ours,
 
For in the hot collapse of day, I'm brought to you.
 
 
While Reithwin sleeps, the world entire is ours,
 


The grass - our bed, the dew - our silver candles,
The grass - our bed, the dew - our silver candles,


The moon and stars our private canopy,
The moon and stars our private canopy,


And you the brightest of them all,
And you the brightest of them all,


My light, my heart, my world.
My light, my heart, my world.


I would watch the stars with you to the end of time -
I would watch the stars with you to the end of time -


But night forever arches into day,
But night forever arches into day,


And the sleepy nothing of the sunlit hours will mutter on.
And the sleepy nothing of the sunlit hours will mutter on.


So instead I shall find eternity in a moment,
So instead I shall find eternity in a moment,


And by the glance of moonbeams in your eyes will I be brought to rest
And by the glance of moonbeams in your eyes will I be brought to rest


As rest should be - enduring, still,
As rest should be - enduring, still,


Longing for naught but itself.
Longing for naught but itself.
