Here I am

Here I am

And the light is dying

Where are you

Where are you

Will you answer me

All alone in the quiet

Ah my ears are thirsty

For your voice

For your voice

Can you answer me

If I try maybe I can see your shadow

In the sodium light that masquerades as moon

If I try I might take off like a sparrow

And I'll travel along a guiding breeze

Very soon

Very soon

That's the sound of longing

Are you there

Are you there

Will you answer me

In my dreams my beloved lies beside me

When the sun lights the room I find it's only me

Only me

Only you when the sun is gone

Only me

Only me when the moon is

With the world

With the world

Around me

All around me with the world around me

Only you when the sun and moon and stars are gone

What's left is only you

Will you answer me

Answer me
