Lyrics

It was august
Already the nights were dark
But still they were warm
Warm and soft as black velour

Black velvet..
A mix of the deep and dark melancholia

We wandered in the moonlight
I remember it was fullmoon
We hid in the shadows under the trees
And tried to scare eachother
As time went by we were touched by the magical atmosphere
And moved around as silently as possible
Maybe we had a secret hope
A hope to see the elves dance in the forests light

Still the lake was there in front of us
The moon was bathing in its blank surface
I remember your body..
Almost completely white in the moonlight
The water was warm and still black
