Lyrics:

Only night
Darkens the hours until morning
Would it be uncivilized
Should we see it any different

In my life
I am seduced by a power
That has grown
Ever darker in those hours

Before light
Dreams will ripple in our sleeping
This will fade
In the hours as we waken

And I swear
These are moments to be furnished
Only fair
We can choose the way we use it

Hours
Have become the measure
Just
To be ours, mine, theirs, yours

Only night
Makes this vessel for our dreaming
Come daybreak we will realize
Light is there to show the difference

And I swear
Hours now become the measure
See us there
Counting back ward from a million

And I swear
Hours now become the measure
See us there
Counting back ward from a million

Only night
