Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar
Floating in the silence that surrounds us
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams, 
Quiet walks by quiet streams, and a window

Looking on the mountains and the sea
How lovely! this is where I want to be

Untill the final flicker of lifes ember
I who was lost and lonely, believing life was only
A bitter tragic joke, have found with you
The meaning of existence oh, my love
