Nightdriver

By Klimt 1918

Springtime comes, tells me who you are

Insects' light stoles these silent stars

Shaking mouth, you should see

The street that flows like a shining tear

Nighttime-drive, searching for suspense

Don't fead for home, I find I'm not there

I'll be waiting patiently

'Til dawn sees my signs, constantly

Feel no shame for what I'm looking for

I try to keep pain hidden when I roam

Night takes care of wounds, I can believe

Night-driving away...

Sky is freed from fears

And with soft tears

Hides my eyes as they cry

I can float here, I drive me home

Now I feel so alive

Dawn, could you try to help me hang on today?

Could you warm my dewy mouth?

Could you keep on singing until the sun won't rise?

Time won't run, birds won't fly?

My plan has long been underway

You know it's true

The street is straight, I take my place

All the world has closed his eyes, since I drive

Cast off the colours

Far away in a place where I fade, where I hide

Stolen stillness

No, she can't find dewy space

Night-drive shelter

Dawn could you keep my secret?

Don't betray me, no...
