Out of the night, into the water
We push the boat from shore
Breaking the air and the stillness of the bay
Intensity of stars reflected in the harbour
Silently ignite
The oar dips into oil like water
And we are away
Your hand won't write
Not tonight
But your mind may wander
Into those deep lagoons that you know
And your boat will go by starlight alone
Da da da da da da da da
You sang to the moon
In the great black night
With no lodestar in sight
Out of the night
Out of the water
We pull the boat back to shore
Breathe in the air and the stillness of the bay
Intensity of stars reflected in the water
Silently ignite
The oar dips into oil like water
And we are away
Under the moon in the great black night
With no lodestar in sight
And wait for it
There are only two things now
This great black night
And the fireglow
And listen! The darkness rings
The darkness....
Listen! The darkness rings
And wait for it
There are only two of us now
This great black night, scooped out
And this fireglow
Listen! The darkness rings
The darkness...
Listen! The darkness rings
Take off your things
