[00:34.569]O' Death come close thy eyes, and grant thee your eternal kiss
[00:50.158]Your sweet embrace, is the bitter warmth I seek
[01:05.168]O' Death come close thy hands, O'er this lifeless flower
[01:20.465]Let the petals fall, upon memories now adorned
[01:38.945]I shall lay her down upon the shores of our love
[01:55.706]Awash in the pale light of the night's sky
[02:07.281]The winds that carried her laugh and stole away her cries
[02:27.142]Shall be with thee that morning that eternal dawn
[02:42.941]The beauty was hers to enjoy yet not to give away
[02:58.271]Like winter's sad dance upon rose's scant life
[03:14.174]With frost brushed tears upon thy blood stained hands
[03:29.818]I saw her soul drift away, never to hold again
[03:42.052]I shall never forgive the gods for the misery they gave her to thee
[03:56.256]For the pain of her death has destroyed the joy of life and love
[04:10.365]I shall never again behold her grace nor her divinity upon thy eyes
[04:24.893]Like grains of black sand falling through thy desperate grasp
[05:38.512]I have mourned her grievous loss draped in a gray veil of deceit
[05:53.136]Distant memories entwine thy hatred for the loneliness of life
[06:08.220]I would give this dark gift away for one more moment in her arms
[06:22.280]I would cast away this sullen husk to kiss her lips once more, once more...
[06:37.635]I yearn to feel the sun's warmth once again upon thy face
[06:50.989]I begat this daystar to steal away these piercing days
[07:04.946]Only in the rapture of the sun shall I find thy happiness
[07:19.180]The years wear thin the pride and there is no more joy to find in life
[08:38.429]Your gown and your crest of black
[08:54.003]To fill the seas with mournful tears
[08:53.452]Of thy heart and thy pain shall rain down
[09:00.435]To fill the seas once more
[09:08.277]Your gown and your crest of black
[09:14.808]It‘s the tempest of which I seek
[09:22.022]Bestow to thee the eyes to see
[09:29.287]The glory of thy days first dawn
[10:42.156]Your rivers and your streams have grown
[10:48.450]To fill the seas with mournful tears
[10:57.477]Of thy heart and thy pain shall rain down
[11:02.102]To fill the seas once more
[12:46.705]O Death, come close thy eyes and steal away the night
[13:02.213]The flower has died and crumbled to dust
[13:17.438]O Death, come close thy hands to this empty void
[13:33.945]The blood has dried and the passion has gone
[13:53.794]I shall follow the night's descent beyond the mountains glare
[14:11.791]And await the day's arrival, slowly finding thee
[14:22.442]To admire the beauty of the dawn is to greet the eternal sleep
[14:42.472]Yet with open arms I concede this loss, yet gain
[14:58.762]Farewell to life and love and farewell to the pain
[15:13.258]Sorrow will not find thee again, I am beyond its' call
[15:31.481]The mourning's calm is upon thee, the caress is warm like lust
[15:45.561]There is no pain in the burning, yet I know death is here
