Sleeping Sun lyrics
The sun is sleeping quietly
once upon a century.
Wistful oceans calm and red,
ardent caresses laid to rest.
For my dreams, I hold my life.
For wishes, I behold my nights.
The truth at the end of time,
losing faith makes a crime.
I wish for this nighttime
to last for a lifetime,
the darkness around me,
shores of a solar sea.
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
sleeping,
weeping,
with you.
Sorrow has a human heart.
From my god, it will depart.
I'd sail before a thousand moons
never finding where to go.
Two hundred twenty-two days of light
will be desired by a night,
a moment for the poet's play
until there's nothing left to say.
I wish for this nighttime
to last for a lifetime,
the darkness around me,
shores of a solar sea.
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
sleeping,
weeping,
with you.
I wish for this nighttime
to last for a lifetime,
the darkness around me,
shores of a solar sea.
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
sleeping,
weeping,
with you.
