Nightswan

Linger on, oh waning moon This midnight hour has come much too soon By the crystal lake we stand With our names in the sand Believe me, my Love I will wait for you And I will return If you still want me, too With the song of the nightswan And I'll be in heaven The lark heralds the break of day No longer by my side can you stay In shrouded mists you disappear Like a ghost bayadere Where are you, my Love? I'm calling your name This spell can be broke Love's ignited the flame Like the song of the nightswan And I'll be in heaven Oh, believe me, my Love I will stand, laying siege to this fortress of time With the glory of you in my heart Charge before the sun touches the rime The Beltane fires upon the hill Your hand in mine by the old water-mill Fairies sing our wedding song Now the moon lingers on Stay with me, my Love My Angel, my Life We walked this dark maze So now we will fly On the wings of the nightswan And we'll be in heaven
