Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera, Paul Gemignani & Renée Fleming the mystery of edwin drood moonfall

Between the very dead of night and day
Upon a steely sheet of light I lay
And in the moonfall I'll give myself to you
I'll bathe in moonfall and dress myself in dew
Before the cloak of night reveals the morn
Time holds its breath while it conceals the dawn
And in the moonfall all sound is frozen still
Yet, warm against me, your skin will warm the chill
Of moonfall
I feel its fingers
Lingers
The veil of nightshade
Night made from stars that all too soon fall
Moonfall
That pours from you
Betwixt our hearts let nothing intervene
Between our eyes the only sight I've seen
Is lustrous moonfall as it blinds my view
So that soon I only see
But you
