And the summer became the fall
I was not ready for the winter
It makes no difference at all
'Cause I wear boots all summer long
My eye makeup dark, and it's careless
Same circles around my eyes
Sometimes the real color of my skin
My eyes, without any shadow
And when I call, will you walk gently though my shadow?
The ones who sing at night (cries the nightbird)
The ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of, the ones who walk away
With their capes pulled 'round them tight
Crying for the night, cry for the nightbird
Tonight
The winter's really here now
And the blankets that I love
Sometimes I am surrounded
By too much love
And when I call, will you walk gently though my shadow?
It's the ones who sing at night
It's the ones who sing at night
The ones you dream of, the ones who walk away
With their capes pulled 'round them tight
Crying for the night, cry for the nightbird
Tonight

The ones who sing at night (oh)
Through the dark and the net of the lace
Pulls back the net and it's hard to see her face
Feel the touch, the touch that you want so much
'Cause when I call, you can walk gently though my shadow
The white winter (it's hard to see your face)
Don't be afraid
You'll see (you'll see)
