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 out
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
oh my love
