Goodnight

The night has come
But not to me
For where I'm from
Is by the sea
And at the sea
With view so far
One man can see
A thousand star
Up in the sky
This single night
Way up so high
And out of sight
Their light will low
Yet very soon
Amazing glow
A blazing moon
The sky now day
And bright landscape
Did take away
The dark blue drape
Of my tonight
As it would seem
But is it right
Or just a dream?
