Those who Dwell Where the Night Falls
A thousand years I walked to find you
I walked across the desert -
And when I came
I saw you leaving.
A thousand years, my feet on fire
Like the flight of fiery falcons
All consumed
And left to ashes.
A thousand years of burning pleasure
Knowing dreams, my destination -
Never knowing,
Never dreaming.
A thousand years I wept like oceans
And I washed away the desert
Tasting tears, and
Dreaming footprints
My heart was torn to pieces -
A thousand years
My heart was breaking
And where you went
My blood flowed to you.
Two thousand years
I only dreamed you
Never knowing
Never dreaming
In the sunset of an evening.
