lyrics

I steal away in cloak of night
Running from the harsh daylight
Shadowed paths now to walk
Shadowed voices now to talk

Mysteries of drum and fire (Heartbeat in the night)
Beauty, pain and dark desire (And it feels so right)
Caress of starlight on my cheek (Reaching deep within)
From the Night Queen I now seek (Feel you on my skin)

Queen of Night
Beauty bright
Dawn of darkness
End of light

Wings of ebon floating down (And she wraps them round me)
Onyx in her silver crown (And now I am happy)
Velvet cloak of swirling night (Hidden from the day)
Radiant with points of light (Sorrow melts away)

Into her arms I send my soul
Rinse the burns to make me whole
Midnight elixir on my skin
Healing me from deep within

Dance your path across the land (And now I will follow)
Starlight trailing from your hand (Filling every hollow)
Shield us from the burning bright (Dreamers in your hand)
Dawn of darkness, end of light (Peace upon our land)
