lyrics

It's the scent of your bed that lingers in my head
So i've come to watch you sleep one night more
And the shades of the room dance softly cross the moon
light covered floor, and you i adore.

When we passed by and your scent lingered in my head
and i knew it was you i'd have lived for
If i've had stayed we'd have kissed, but in another world i live
taken long before, but you now i adore.

I adore in the night when dark dreams roar
and a memory stirs, a long lost world
i mourned to long before, la vie, la morte

Long ago there was a babe, and one night the wee folk came
and his scent would trace the room no more
and the world where he'd had grown and the love he would have known
are lost, and you now i adore

I adore in the night when dark dreams roar
and a memory stirs, a long lost world
i mourned to long before, la vie, la morte

I've lived in lands far too strange in your language to explain
and i'll know a place called home nevermore
but ah, the scent of your bed, it lingers in my head
so one night more i watch you and adore
