Dm                    C  Dm
The sun is sleeping quietly
             C    F
Once upon a century
                C        F
Wistful oceans calm and red
                 C       Dm
Ardent caresses laid to rest
                 C       Dm
For my dreams I hold my life
                C       Bb
For wishes I behold my nights
                       Gm
A truth at the end of time
                       Dm
Losing faith makes a crime

[Chorus]
   Dm                          Bb         F
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time
     Gm        Dm               Bb          F Am/E
The darkness around me - shores of a solar sea
Dm                   Bb            C
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
  F
Sleeping
  C
Weeping
      Dm
With you

[Verse]
Dm            C     Dm
Sorrow has a human heart
                C      F
From my God it will depart
                    C       F
I`d sail before a thousand moons
                C       Dm
Never finding where to go
     C       Dm
222 days of light
                C     Bb
Will be desired by a night
                          Gm
A moment for the poet`s play
                              Dm
Until there`s nothing left to say

[Chorus]
   Dm                          Bb         F
I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time
     Gm        Dm               Bb          F Am/E
The darkness around me - shores of a solar sea
Dm                   Bb            C
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
  F
Sleeping
  C
Weeping
      Dm
With you

[Chorus]

     Bbm       Fm               Db         Fm

Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
