Out of the night, into the water 
We push the boat from shore 
Breaking the air and the stillness of the bay 
Intensity of stars reflected in the harbour 
Silently ignite 
The oar dips into oil like water 
And we are away 
Your hand won't write 
Not tonight 
But your mind may wander 
Into those deep lagoons that you know 
And your boat will go by starlight alone 
Da da da da da da da da 
You sang to the moon 
In the great black night 
With no lodestar in sight 
Out of the night 
Out of the water 
We pull the boat back to shore 
Breathe in the air and the stillness of the bay 
Intensity of stars reflected in the water 
Silently ignite 
The oar dips into oil like water 
And we are away 
Under the moon in the great black night 
With no lodestar in sight 
And wait for it 
There are only two things now 
This great black night 
And the fireglow 
And listen! The darkness rings 
The darkness.... 
Listen! The darkness rings 
And wait for it 
There are only two of us now 
This great black night, scooped out 
And this fireglow 
Listen! The darkness rings 
The darkness... 
Listen! The darkness rings 
Take off your things 
And listen! 
The darkness rings
