As the day gives birth to the night “Have faith” a voice whispers The skies turn dark And the only light I see Is the reflection of the moonlight In the river I am crossing My eyes are too tired to look up So I enjoy the reflection As though she came down on earth Just to make me company I like the night It’s the only time I can hear what I think And think what I really mean As I cross the river I enter the woods with no light Even the stars are not to be seen But I just continue forward Till I reach the other side “I have faith” I say aloud to the velvet skies As the night gives birth of the new day On the other side of the woods
