She came and she touched me[00:00:05]
With hands made of heaven[00:00:08]
Reflections sent spinnin'[00:00:11]
Through a face laced in mist[00:00:13]
Now I stand where she left me[00:00:18]
Buried deep 'neath her shadow[00:00:21]
And the mirror pleads sadly[00:00:24]
Has it all come to this[00:00:26]
And I wonder[00:00:30]
Will she call my name[00:00:33]
Well the wind careens madly[00:00:42]
Through wide windows paneless[00:00:45]
Fragrancies mingle[00:00:47]
In a room full of shade[00:00:48]
The peons pick partners[00:00:55]
And waltz 'cross the ceilings[00:00:58]
But the violins whisper[00:01:01]
That I've been betrayed[00:01:04]
Tryin' not to look ashamed[00:01:08]
Well the drunkards drink deeply[00:01:19]
From cups full of nothingness[00:01:22]
Ghost lovers laugh[00:01:25]
At the games that they play[00:01:27]
While the moments do somersaults[00:01:32]
Into eternity[00:01:35]
Cling to their coattails[00:01:38]
And beg them to stay[00:01:40]
Saying I got nothing to hide[00:01:45]
Well Illusions projected[00:01:56]
On walls made of tiffany[00:01:59]
Mad minuets to[00:02:02]
A sad satin song[00:02:04]
A harlequin mandolins[00:02:09]
Harmonize helplessly[00:02:12]
Hoping that endlessly[00:02:15]
Won't last for long[00:02:17]
Praying that their God ain't dying[00:02:22]
Then I turn and I see her[00:02:33]
In a dress made of moonlight[00:02:36]
Teardrops like diamonds[00:02:39]
Run slow down her face[00:02:41]
And her arms surround me[00:02:46]
Like chains made of velvet[00:02:49]
And the demons fall faithfully[00:02:52]
Into their place[00:02:55]
And the river runs with jewels[00:02:59]
Now the morning lies open[00:03:10]
The night went quite quickly[00:03:13]
Memory harmlessly[00:03:16]
Fractures and fades[00:03:19]
All the poets do push ups[00:03:23]
On carpets of rubber foam[00:03:26]
Loudly they laugh[00:03:29]
At some joke that's been made[00:03:31]
And the wise men speak like fools[00:03:36]
