Rising from deep slumber
Losing the crystal lake
Shattered dreams like fallen stars
Disappear as I awake
Howls in the distance
Beckon reality
Somewhere a siren whispers
Calling out to me...
Dreams are lost 'twixt life and sleep
Spiralling away with speed
Tears are shed into the night
Endless and without peace
She always hears and soothes the fears
With passionate embrace
Take me now my silent guide
Lead me through the blackest veil
Always shall I follow
Her radiance through the gloom
And never will I cease
Gazing upon the harvest moon
No matter if the shadows consume
Everything of worth
As the light fades once again
And stars shine upon the earth
She will rise and take her place
Ascending to the throne
The regal jewel of the night
Come to take me home
Always shall I follow
Gazing upon the harvest moon
Come enlighten me
Lend me your noble gallantry
Bestow me with your ancient gift
To always penetrate the darkest mist
This is my only wish...
Arriving at the precipice
Peering into the sea below
Gazing out beyond the shore
Bathing in her glow
Her face fades into the twilight mist
Whispering of her leave
Departing as my weary lids close
Drifting into endless sleep
