Night is not broken
torn like the day
only she welcomes
your heart to stay

And as you whisper:
carry me in!
She blows the light out,
covers your skin

Night is a friend to a stranger
she knows the cure of the sigh
slowly releasing the anguish
guiding the stranger to die
Stays till forever he's drifting
into the colorless night
out the Word he was given
out of the: Let there be light!


Night is not aching
sick as the day
deep in her shelter
you want to stay

And as you whisper:
carry my load:
she calms the waters
make you a boat

Night is a friend to a stranger
she knows the cure of the sigh
slowly releasing the anguish
guiding the stranger to die
Stays till forever he's drifting
into the colorless night
out the Word he was given
out of the: Let there be light!

Night is not leaving
runs through the day
as your companion
she knows the way

And as you whisper
show me the road:
she takes the pencil
write you a note

How can you help it
done is the will
Night bids you welcome
daylight to kill.

These beautiful lyrics read like a song, Peter. Do you sing it?

Yes Lizzy

It is a new song I have written, I hope to sing it to you sometimes.

Love

Peter

Hi Peter ~

Now that would be an honour . Have you given it a wonderful, slow melody ?

~ Lizzy

well the verse is light, and the chorus is full of passion. Its goes in an intense 3/4

Peter

Thanks, Peter .
