The trees have so many fingers
They reach into my soul
The woods form an ocean

That leaves me space to play
The wind has a million voices
But one I long to hear

The waves play give and take tonight
I surrender to their game


A thousand times goodnight
Come madam, let's away
A thousand times farewell

Away, stay not amazed

The sun awakes to show our deeds

I'm kissed, I'm hit, it burns, it bleeds
Away, stay not amazed
Oh, by and by I come

Come while you still can

My eyes adjust to the sunlight

At night I cannot see
My skin has this lovely smell
The smell of all your kisses

This caring gentle summer breeze
That tosses with my hair
Until the rain begins to fall

And I am wrapped up in grace

A thousand times goodnight

Come madam, let's away
A thousand times farewell
Away, stay not amazed


The sun awaked my eyes to see
I'm loved, caressed, contained and free

Away, stay not amazed
Oh by and by I come
A new night is today
