Wings of the night, I hear your call
I have been waiting for your sleepy song
whisper your magic, carry me along
I sleep tonight, within my dreams
memories from all those better times
meeting old friends who are long gone
I do not know if this is real, or just a dream
familiar sights, friends discussing things of every day
like they were never gone for so long
Into the night, whisk me away
comforting thoughts and fluffy clouds
out of the darkness when the lights are out
I have a wish, let this be real, not fantasy
seeing my friends all around me as the day goes by
and I won’t let them leave anymore
End of the night, sunrise to come
images faded, no longer show
as I awaken they are gone
Wings of the night, wings of the night.
