Gm(D#maj7)Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m Silent, too quiet are the woods in the eve of this night. Gm (D#maj7) Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m Once again I lit the candle on my window. Gm(D#maj7) Gm F#m (F#sus2) F#m And... And waited. Waited for the sleep... B1: [Cm7] -- [D#] -- [Gm - D#maj7] -- [F] X2 [Cm7] -- [D#] Gm F#m Evael, my dream has been so alive and this D# Cm plague has cleansed this world for us.

D# Cm I kept my eyes closed but still felt the light, Gm F#m and the room was filled by butterflies. C2: Cm Gm G# I rose with my heart beating. Cm For the weak hope of the midnight's hour I prayed Gm G# and opened my door to the winter night. Cm And she fell... She fell to my arms. Gm G# In tears I carried her and laid Cm her down to sleep. Her eyes Gm G# frozen from the thousand nights alone. Cm She trembled and whispered: A3: (silence) D "I was lost in the woods. Csus2 Csus2 And the trees kept me away from you. Gm D For I brought the plague with them. Csus2 Csus2 With the butterflies..." B3: Am F Hush now and let it go. Csus4 C Csus4 C Close your eyes now.
