When I was young I had a lover

But she died one day

So i'll never love another

No i'll never love another the same

But I see her in the sky

Near that riverbend

She's the moon she is dressed in white

Oh night don't end

No oh

I am growing old

My knees are growing weak

I miss the one I loved when I was young

She's the only one for me

Oooh ohhh

Oooh ohhh

With my worm's eye view

Oh I'm looking up to you

Praying with your bird's eye you're looking at me too

I will make my way

Over to the great plains

'Cause next to you I see heaven's gates

So night don't end

No night no

I am growing old

My knees are growing weak

I miss the one I loved when I was young

She's the only one for me

Oooh ohhh

Oooh ohhh

I am growing old

My knees are growing weak

I miss the one I loved when I was young

She's the only one for me

Oooh ohhh

Oooh ohhh

I will run

'Cause the morning brings the sun

Now I will lose you when the night is done

Oh I will run

'Cause the morning brings the sun

Now I will lose you when the night is done

When the night is done
