Part I-The Rosy Night
Tonight when I can’t sleep
I stand beneath the rosy sky
My heart beats to the tune of the clocks
Amidst the fragrant winds,
I am ready to fly
Silence makes the sweetest song
When love overpowers me
This place of peace, this heaven of joy
Is where I forever want to be
The sky, the stars and the moon
Get brilliant as the night warms
And this night, when I am with my love,
Go away slumber, don’t take me in my arms
Part II-The Noisy Night
Tonight when I can’t sleep
I stand beneath the darkest sky
The sky roars, the crickets scream
The noise of the night makes me cry
Silence makes the deadliest noise
When sorrow overpowers me
This night of tears, this time of grief
Is what I never wished to see
The sky, the stars and the moon
Have now lost all their charms
And this night, when my love is gone,
Come slumber, take me, forever, in your arms
Tonight when I can’t sleep
I stand beneath the rosy sky
My heart beats to the tune of the clocks
Amidst the fragrant winds,
I am ready to fly
Silence makes the sweetest song
When love overpowers me
This place of peace, this heaven of joy
Is where I forever want to be
The sky, the stars and the moon
Get brilliant as the night warms
And this night, when I am with my love,
Go away slumber, don’t take me in my arms
Part II-The Noisy Night
Tonight when I can’t sleep
I stand beneath the darkest sky
The sky roars, the crickets scream
The noise of the night makes me cry
Silence makes the deadliest noise
When sorrow overpowers me
This night of tears, this time of grief
Is what I never wished to see
The sky, the stars and the moon
Have now lost all their charms
And this night, when my love is gone,
Come slumber, take me, forever, in your arms
