I walk alone into lady night 
She wraps me in her black veils 
Wraps me tight 
Her velvet touch on my weary eyes 
Kisses softly 
Windy sighs 
Lady Night in her grandeur 
Flaunts jewels of light 
Flirting with Sir Half-moon 
She shimmies slowly 
Backs-o'-mountains 
Dips her hair in twilight 
Walks alone into lady night 
The woman's discreet as a grave, and I know she'll 
Want your tears… 
Lady Night's got an appetite 
For sorrow liquidated into 
Pearls of light 
One by one she'll gather them to her breast 
Kiss your lowered eyes and bid you rest 
She take me to her tummy, I clutch her warmth 
I know that I am falling 
She delves into my mind, brings out my darkest thoughts 
The keep her dark from dawning 
(I know that's what she wants…) 
I turn my back to Lady Night 
My mind is clear 
My pearls are in the satchel 
I've paid my share of blackness to her 
Turn my back to the lady, though she calls 
She calls 
But I am going to the dawn 
And she can no longer keep me
