Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us.

Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And a window looking on the mountains and the sea,
Oh how lovely!

This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Until the final flicker of life's ember.

I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was only
A bitter tragic joke, have found with you,
The meaning of existence, oh my love
