Sweet Night
Oh wonderous night! Bestill my heart
I beg of you deliver me to my love
Wake the stars in celebration
Have them watch my final becoming
Beckon the sun, request it to rise
Seek an early dawn before the appointed time
Whisper to the wind my secret heart
Uncover my soul and witness my rebirth

Oh glorious night!  Dark companion of day
Invent more time for passion's sweet kiss
Assist me, release my bonds of inhibition
Bestow upon me ecstacy's peak
Measure not time by hour tonight
Allow the gift of minutes lost within tangled limbs
Betwixt dusk and dawn speak softly
Waken not the world to interrupt

Oh sweet night!  Wrapping darkness 'round
I arch to thee within rapture's grasp
Cool my heated form beneath my love
Listen to endearments breathed upon a sigh
Dry the glistening upon my limbs
Caress my skin with your sweet breath
Heal fullfillment's cry of glory
Lend relief upon the aftermath of release
