A need of tears come drowning fears
As lovers gain alone i wait and
As lovers gain alone i wait and
claim these songs forever dear
Want not grief alone i call
a heart all black without a soul
A kiss of poison fruitful not
a ghost of yesteryear forgot
In drinking up i do but climb
a structure all but standing time
Herald awakes this kiss to take
a stolen memory a heart to brake
Nothing more my face is not
a paleness all but time forgot
Forgiveness to ask i never hear
my memory, this story i ask you dear
Take my lips within this face cherish
my heart they do replace
Bring me back my soul to join these
lips warm and tender mine
