Les Nubians Follow

in a black and white dream

we will drift on clouds of ivory

on a smoking air stream

and then we will float away

please take me to heaven

on heroic glass wings

we will float beside the angels

and cut the stars from their strings

and then the night will fade

please take me to heaven

on a promise you will keep

we will make a bed of wishing

in a garden of sleep

and then come what may

please take me to heaven

in a blanket of night

we will keep our bodies warm

and let our shadows take flight

and we will be on our way

please take me to heaven

on a kiss with closed eyes

we will walk between the spaces

of the air and the skies

until the light of day

please take me to heaven

in the warmth of your arms

we will swim in seas of touching

and we will drown in its charms

and we will forever stay

in a black and white dream
