lyrics

At midnight in the month of june
I stand beneath the mystic moon.
An opiate vapor dewy dim
Exhales from out her golden rim.
Oh lady bright can it be right ?
This window open to the night.
The wanton airs from the tree top
Laughingly to the lattice drop.

I swap the flame, I swap the flame
And admit it's a fail.
But I'll never forget you turned
The child I was into a man.
Can I call you Lady Bright ?
Does your nickname sounds right ?
It's only misunderstandings
And missed chances.

The lady sleeps, oh may her sleep
Which is enduring, so be deep.
Heaven have her in sacred keep
This chamber changed for one more holy.
My love she sleeps oh may her sleep,
As it is lasting, so be deep.
Soft may the worms about her creep
Far in the forest, dim and old.
