I Tell This Night

Stephan Eicher · Traces [2009]

I tell This Night to please slow down

One evening do you remember, singing I pass your always

You sleep, hidden in these boundless deep nights

In the same moment, I laugh and I cry



Every moon is horrible and every sun is bitter

True love doesn't exist but it's the love of both of us

Every moon is horrible and every sun is bitter, so bitter



I tell this night to please slow down

Do you know the inner fever ? My hand over flames

The early twilight hurts, the dream to the dream

As mysterious as your eyes which gleam under your tears



Every moon is horrible and every sun is bitter

True love doesn't exist but it's the love of both of us

Every moon is horrible and every sun is bitter, so bitter



I tell This Night to please slow down, please slow down

They never say what, but only request

We to look at them each and every day

I take my knife while the others take the mask



Every moon is horrible and every sun is bitter

True love doesn't exist but it's the love of both of us

Every moon is horrible and every sun is bitter, so bitter.
