Let's stay awake and listen to the dark.nBefore the birds, before they all wake up.nIt's the ending of a play and soon begins another.nHear the leaves applaud the wind.nnSee the sun come rising and white-wings start to fly.nLike strings of pearls in the firey sky.nI don't want to close my eyes, don't want to leave the stage now,nAs the leaves applaud our stay.nnLend me yours wings and teach me how to fly.nShow me when it rains, the place you go to hide.nAnd the curtains draw again and bow - another day ends.nThe leaves applaud the wind.
