Bic Runga somewhere in the night

Somewhere in the night
Your voice is miles away
Rendered from the dust
It will be dust again
Spoken like a lullaby
Infinite as sky on sky
Somewhere in the night
How sweet you sing for me
Tender as the smile
That drifts across your face
Fleeting as the wind
That passes on the plains
Never to be ball and chain
Never to be seen again
Somewhere in the night
How sweet you sing for me
You may ask but I won't say
In the still of the cool day
Deep inside a dream
I swore I was awake
Waking to the tune
I hear your voice again
Lifted by a sudden breeze
Tangled in the cypress trees
Somewhere in the night
How sweet you sing for me
You may ask but I can't say
In the still of the cool day
