Lyrics

The call of the night bird
As I fall asleep
Naked on the balcony
I stiffen in the breeze

The thrilling hush of the ocean
Beyond the lights
The peel of distance bells
In the dead of night

I'm drifting down, down, down
I'll lead you down, down, down

Wrapped in sober solitude
Waiting your caress
In my head I hear your voice
And I don't for fall descend (?)

I drift would all I do
Is drift upon a tainted sea
Like a painted ship
Life goes on below me

I'm drifting down, down, down
I'll lead you down, down, down
I'm drifting down, down, down
