[A] [D]
[Bb] The [C]
[F] [C]
[Dm]
[D] [Dm]
sun is sweeping quietly, once upon a [C] [F] century.
Wistful oceans calm and red-hardened caresses [B] laid [Dm] to rest.
For my dreams I hold my life for wishes, I [C] behold [Bb] my nights.
The truth at the end of [Gm] time, losing faith makes [Dm] a crime.
I wish for this night time [Bb] to
[F] let [Gm] you down, [Dm] me, [Bb] choice of the solar [F] sea.
[Dm] I wish to [Bb] go down [C] the sun, [F]
[C] weeping [Dm] with you.
As the human light [C] will [F] depart, I'd sail before a thousand moons, never finding [F] where to [Dm] go.
Two hundred twenty-two days of light will be desired [Dm] by [Bb] a night.
The moment though the poets [Gm] play, until there's nothing less [D] to say.
[Dm]
I wish for this night time [Bb] to last a [F] lifetime, [Gm] the darkness [Dm] around me, [Bb] choice of the solar [F] sea.
[Dm] Oh, how I wish to [Bb] go down [C] the sun, [F] [C]
weeping [D] with you.

[F] [Gm]
[Dm] [Bb]
[F] I wish [Fm] for this night time [Db] to [Ab]
[Bb] end the [F] serenity, [Db] choice of the solar [Fm] sea.
Oh, how I wish to [Db] go [Eb] down the sun, [Ab] [Eb]
weeping [Fm] with you.
