That trick of night
The fright of moving shadows
Keeping wake to steal the heart
Our fingers clutching fear
but fear not, t’is only sadness sending dreams

Drawing the lady of the sun
She swims the earth, bestowing light
in wedding bands of golden beams
Across the hands of monsters deep
Wedding them to darkened bliss

She draws the day & blinds their sight
With colored kisses her caress
While Serpents play in tears and touch
Sending sprays of thrilling mist
they give their love, in gifts of clouds and rain

So fear not, child, sleep tonight
The dark is only; sadness leaving
