text: Following the path as it leads towards
  The darkness in the north
  Weary stranger’s faces show their sympathy
  They’ve seen that hope before
  And if you want to stay for a little bit
  Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
  For you the night is beckoning
  And now you can’t delay
  You hear the night birds calling you
  But you can’t catch the words they say
  Close your ears and eyes, be on your way
  Mist is swirling, creatures crawling
  Hear the roar get louder in your ears
  You know the folly was your own
  But the force behind can’t conquer all you fears
  And if you want to stay for a little bit
  Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
  For you the night is beckoning
  And now you can’t delay
  You hear the night birds calling you
  But you can’t catch the words they say
  Close your ears and eyes, be on your way
  Throw your thoughts back many years
  To the time when love was life with every morning
  Perhaps a day will come
  When the lights will be as clear as on that morning
  And if you want to stay for a little bit
  Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
  For you the night is beckoning
  And now you can’t delay
  You hear the night birds calling you
  But you can’t catch the words they say
  Close your ears and eyes, be on your way
