Oh I walked down to the water's edge And I lay my body down And the dark sky above me wrapped its cold arms around me As the night carried me away As the night carried me away Visions of dancers moving through time And the circles where they pour sacred wine To wet their lips for the stories they told As the night carried me away As the night carried me away Dance with me under the moon Who knows how many moons We'll be here my dear So I followed you into that clearing To the place where voices rose like smoke And they carried us away And they carried us away When you wake from the place Where the soul speaks in riddles And the night can go on for years Oh it drifts away like the dew in the morning As the night it fades away As the night it fades away Dance with me under the moon
