Twinkle, Twinkle little star
|
How I wonder what you are
|
Like a diamond glitt'ring in the sky
|
Seems to me you shine your light
|
Down to me to say goodnight
|
Twinkle, Twinkle my old friend
|
Sleep is waiting round the bend
|
While you travel through the milky way
|
From afar
|
Twinkle, Twinkle, Twinkle little star.
|
|
Raindrops on a window pane
|
Stillness of a summer rain
|
Silently the haze drifts through the trees
|
Slowly dawn is breaking through
|
Yet a morning without you
|
|
Curtins rustling in the breeze
|
I'm still trapped within my dreams
|
Daylight makes it's way into my mind
|
Coming through
|
Yet another morning without you.
|
|
Finally when darkness falls
|
Casting shadows on the walls
|
In the twilight hour I am alone
|
Sitting near the fireplace
|
Dying embers warm my face
|
In this peaceful solitude
|
All the outside world subdued
|
Everything comes backs to me again
|
In the gloom
|
Like an angel passing through my room
|
|
Mmm, Mmm, Mmm- echoes of a voice I knew
|
Half awake in half in dreams
|
Seeing long forgotten scenes
|
So the present runs into the past
|
Now and then become entwined
|
Playing games within my mind
|
Like the embers as they die
|
Love was one prolonged goodbye
|
And it all comes back to me tonight
|
In the gloom
|
Like an angel passing through my room.
|
|
I close my eyes
|
And my twilight images go by
|
All too soon
|
Like an angel passing through my room
|
|
Long awaited darkness falls
|
Casting shadows on the walls
|
In the twilight hour I am alone
|
Sitting near the fireplace
|
Dying embers warms my face
|
In this peaceful solitude
|
All the outside world subdued
|
Everything comes back to me again
|
In the gloom
|
Like an angel passing through my room
|
|
Half awake and half in dreams
|
Seeing long forgotten scenes
|
So the present runs into the past
|
Now and then become entwined
|
Playing games within my mind
|
Like the embers as they die
|
Love was one prolonged goodbye
|
And it all comes back to me tonight
|
In the gloom
|
Like an angel passing through my room
|
|
I close my eyes
|
And my twilight images go by
|
All too soon
|
Like an angel passing through my room.
