Separated By Night

I long for my garden, my love
The wine of loneliness I have drunk
I long to feed upon thy beauty
Open to me my sister, my dove

For my hair is filled with dew
In the shades of night I stand
At thy gate I wait for thee
Quench my thirst embrace me!

I roam the streets by night
Driven by a passion beyond my darkest fear
Desire burns my soul, I can not sleep
I find no peace

In deepest pain I dwell
Like a possessed man under a spell
My fragile heart is in thine hands
My throat is dry, no wine can quench my burning thirst
