Fernando Ortega Night Of Your Return
You were a star in the sky
Over the sinking sun.
Of all the voices that cried,
You were the only one
Telling us what we should hear,
Trust of friends through the years -
Is this the night of your return?
There is a house on the hill
Where all your old friends wait.
Softly the firelight spills
Out to the stony gate -
Voices from inside the door
Calling you back to the shore,
Out of the night of your return.
We wait for you
We wait for you
Is this the night of your return?
You know the evening by name,
Drawn to the secretive,
Still, we are one and the same -
We have our weaknesses.
So many things we would say,
But we will wait until day,
This is the night of your return.
We wait for you
We wait for you
This is the night of your return.
