lyrics

I. Strophe
I caught your smile in the deep darkest night
and together we took off to the moon.
Your kisses – so sweet and in happiness I cried,
your eyes reminded me of deep dark brown truth.
But morning washed away all the magic in between
and we gazed at each other in guilt.
You took away your secrets that I clearly had seen
in the night down at the river bench.

Refrain
Said, hey, hey Lady! You are my lady of the night, of the night.
Hey, Lady! You are my lady of the night!

II. Strophe
You took my heart in the deep darkest night
and you put it so softly on your legs.
Open and so naked it was beating strongly there
and it was dancing to the rhythm of your breath.
But morning light so cold as clarity can be,
it pushed me away from my throne.
Reason held the mirror in my nightly suffered face
and all your kisses broke away like falling stones.

Refrain

III. Strophe
You took my doubts in the deep-darkest night
and you put them so fiercely in your arms.
You collected all those memories of those beautiful things
so I did not have to fall apart.
So I close my eyes when the morning appears
just to be with you for a while.
Let‘s just pretend forever to be free
and forget about the morning time.

Refrain
