 (Slow)
When  the twilight is gone,
 And no songbirds  are singing,
 When the twilight is gone,
 You come into  my heart..
 And here  in my heart  you will stay..
While I pray.
 My prayer  is to linger with you,
 At the end of the day  in a dream that's divine.
 My prayer  is a rapture in bloom,
 With the world far away, and  your lips close to mine.
 Tonight  while our hearts are aglow,
 Oh, tell  me the words that I'm longing to know.
 My prayer  and the answer you give..
 May they still be the same  for as long as we live,
 That you'll always be there..
 At the end  of my prayer.
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
