56
AT MIDNIGHT
Now that the living sleep
And the dead awake,
Joy shall return to me
And my cold hands take.
And the dead awake,
Joy shall return to me
And my cold hands take.
Here at the midnight hour
I shall feel again
Love in a kiss, and then
The resulting pain.
I shall feel again
Love in a kiss, and then
The resulting pain.
But when the dawn shall speed
With its stealth and flash,
Deep in my heart the fire
Shall again be ash.
With its stealth and flash,
Deep in my heart the fire
Shall again be ash.
