Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar
Floating in the silence that surrounds us
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams,
Quiet walks by quiet streams,
And a window looking on the mountains and the sea
How lovely! This is where I want to be
Here, with you so close to me,
Until the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely, believing life was only
A bitter tragic joke, have found with you
The meaning of existence oh, my love.
