Let me uncover you and kiss you goodnight.
And Morpheus attend your sleep.
Dream not of Kalaharis and of tundras.
For treeless or frigid our love will never be.
Dream only of Shangri-las and El Doraldos
where we shall happily reside.
When you awake, I shall
be by your very side
to show you the early rides of Hyperion.
Of sun shines and glorious rides
our love shall ever be.
The envy of forlon lovers, the epitome of comedies.
Agamemnon himself would do head spin in his grave.
And Romeo and Juliet would resurrect and wonder.
So goodnight my love, goodnight.
One more kiss, goodnight.
