I Called Unto The Night
I called unto the night
And night was silent
I called unto the winds
They wouldn't blow
I called unto my love
And love was hiding
I asked the sky to find him
It said "No"
I asked the underworld
If he was sleeping
If he had fallen
Dying like a leaf
I begged for hope
But there was no hope offered
No angel came
To comfort me in grief
I called to science to help me
And to magic
I couldn't live without him
Or his love
I called to love itself
And it was listening
There in the secret place
It dwells above
I called unto the sun
It wouldn't shine
But shrank and hid itself
Behind the moon
I prayed unto the heavens
They were distant
But love whispered "Have some faith
You'll see him soon"
I called within my dreams
And there I found him
Laughing with the smile
He often wore
I called his name
And up the trail he hastened
Grabbed me in his arms
There at the door
I woke in morning
And he was not there with me
I looked for him on ocean
And on land
I sought his face
Without his love to guide me
But all I held
Was just my empty hand
I called unto the night
And then it answered
"Nothing in this life
Is as it seems"
"You'll never find your love
When you're awakened
For he is waiting for you
In your dreams"
And so I slept forever
As the night fell
And covered me with stars
From heaven's skies
And saw my love
Just waiting in the distance
With all the love I longed for
In his eyes.
