Let down low your tresses dark
in the sound moment so stark
Carry the night in waves repeating
Here at the sight of days retreating

We hold the time we cherish best
Untold, sublime and in our rest
For there we string our hearts along
As we sing our favorite song

There we leave on shores behind
what we believe tore at our minds
In those places I met with you
and I see the traces of a life I knew

Joy returns now in a quieter way
and I learn somehow as it stays
For it is more like peace than I knew
There is no war that keeps me from you
