Eternal Night

Emma Shapplin


My life 'Tis you who dream
0f another world
Another flame...

I no longer know to whom I belong 
Oh desolate shore
0f my unhappy state
As one who no longer sees the sky 
When the heart is dull
As one who contemplates 
Eternal night
Save me! Such as I am!

Thence
Tell me, what know you
0f bewildered, feverish
Expectation?
Where? Where are you? 
While your exiled captive
Awaits you

And I no longer know to whom I 
belong
Oh desolate shore
0f my unhappy state

I am as one who no longer sees the sky
When the heart is dull
As one who contemplates
Etemal night 
Free me... i am drifting,drifting 
Save me...
