"Tonight" lyrics - RENAISSANCE

In the silence of my room
With the dawn's unfolding light
Morning songbirds in the sky
My silent prayer takes flight
Like a child...
An innocent
Of night

I always knew my lover
Gentle, strong, coming closer to me
I long to see my lover
A man in love with the world
With all the passion that he knew
He felt a sign, something new
His devotion, lost, once treasured
So will this really happen?

In my mind I'm troubled
In my heart I'm free
I'm not afraid

I count the days to when I feel him standing next to me
What to do? My fears lay scattered everywhere!
Will he be in shadows hiding, will he listen patiently
Mirrored deep in somber dreams?

Soon this night will show its face
Its pleasures tempting, bound in grace
I stand here lost in proud desire
With open arms I'm so alive

Love is all around me now
Gold and silver flowers rare
So time has healed as time went by
Favored wishes realized
I see him now, I see him clearly
A glistening star
Just like my dream!
And I will hold my head up high
Tonight!

This is my lover!
This is my love!
Gold and silver flowers rare
Have no questions, have no cares

My lonely heart has gone forever
Tearful with hope and joy
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight!
