tis love that is lost my heart lie bleeding one last time i caress her flesh on this cold and wet september morning tis beauty that has vanished it s soft light growing dim without it life is only living and death is but the end the song of the swans is all i hear i m lit by the light of morning i shall never love again never place faith in the pleasures of life again never turning back life s wonder has abandoned me now she said i ll be with you till the end then her life was cast away from me right then now all i have is morning so i ll bathe in the sunlight alone i m left to face the night a drama of nightmare bliss captive of it s scaly arms and whore to it s lustful kiss alone i am in twilight of autumns cold december warning by beauty entombed my love lie cold now i wait for morning the tension of night s grasp i can t breath i feel i m trapped without you i m left as prey to night s dark grim serenade i pause and cool my head i know that memories lie ahead filled with passion and tragedy oh please morning rescue me where to now alone with the sunlight of dawns magnificence conception of a new day i can breath once more shower me with life and lash me with love no longer am i captive to night s darkened plays or the moon s shadowed glaze
