Shadow lover, never seen by day
Only deep in dreams do you appear
Wisdom tells me I should turn away
The love of mist and shadows are unclear
Nothing can I hold of you, but thought
Shadow lover, mist and twilight wrought

Shadow lover, comfort me in pain
Love, although I never see your face.
All who'd have me fear you speak in vain
Never would I shrink from your embrace
Shadow lover, gentle is your hand
Never could another understand

Shadow lover, from the shadows made
Lead me into shadows once again
Where you lead I cannot be afraid
For with you I shall come home again
In your arms I shall not fear the night
Shadow lover, lead me into light
