2 AM and Elisa goes down to the sea
Stars like diamonds laughing at gravity
The water is cold, the moon is a pearl
She's awaiting the birth of a new baby girl
Play your mandolin for me, the sweetness of music is mine
And I will love you 'til the end of time
I will love you 'til the end of time
Back at the house, the sleepyheads dream peacefully
Of all the things that have been and the things that could be
Elisa she sings in the sea, "Oh my love, how I'll roam
And I'll sail these cold northern waters just to bring you home"
Play your mandolin for me, the sweetness of music is mine
And I will love you 'til the end of time
I will love you 'til the end of time
3 AM and Elisa she swims to the shore
Back in the warm house she once again closes the door
Her love is still dreaming, her eldest child sleeps like a stone
And I'll sail these cold northern waters just to bring you home
Play your mandolin for me, the sweetness of music is mine
And I will love you 'til the end of time
I will love you 'til the end of time
