Nightfall, oh, river of night, flow through me

Washing thoughts of the day on your waters away

For the morrow that dawns never knew me

Nightfall, nightfall, folding her dark locks around you

Her eyes, they have found you

Would show you this new dream they're holding

Oh, sleep, oh, come to me

You, who are night's daughter

And I'll give you my eyes for the colours that rise

As time's echoes reflect on your water
