In the warm night under silver light, My steps fade on an empty street, The wind keeps calling out your name, Like a farewell we couldn’t keep. [Pre-Chorus] Candles burn on a lonely table, Your shadow moves so slow, Death is not a storm, my love, Just a place we have to go… [Chorus] Death holds my hand so gently tonight, Like a bolero played out of sight, No thunder cries, no breaking skies, Just quiet tears in moonless light. Death carries me into your dream, Like a kiss that came too soon, it seems, And in the last night of my breath, I whisper softly… don’t fear death… [Verse 2] Your name lingers on my lips, Like smoke from a fading flame, The city sleeps in velvet dark, But nothing here feels the same. [Pre-Chorus] Distant bells begin to ring, Yet I don’t run away, Death is just an open door At the end of yesterday… [Chorus] Death holds my hand so gently tonight, Like a bolero played out of sight, No thunder cries, no breaking skies, Just quiet tears in moonless light. Death carries me into your dream, Like a kiss that came too soon, it seems, And in the last night of my breath, I whisper softly… don’t fear death… [Bridge] If you search for me in the dark, Hear the trumpet softly cry, Where love fades into the night, That’s where souls never die… [Final Chorus – soft ending] Death holds my hand so gently tonight, Our final dance beneath the light, And in the silence of my last breath, I turn to shadows… And rest… 🌙
