Lyrics The Incredible String Band

The Incredible String Band

Nightfall

Nightfall, o river of night flow through me

Washing the thoughts of the day on your waters away

For the morrow that dawns never knew me

Nightfall nightfall folding her dark locks around you

Her eyes they have found you

Would show you this new dream they're holding

O sleep, o come to me you who are night's daughter

And I'll give you my eyes for the colors that rise

As time's echoes reflect on your water
