I felt you drifting by A fading light that caught my eye A vision of serenity Brought in times of tragedy A face so pale and skin like snow A calming warmth, love’s inner glow The one I long to see at last A fleeting moment of the past
Oh cut adrift at sea The waves lashed on relentlessly Your body taken to the deep A watery grave in which you’d sleep Helpless, I clung to the wreck A storm so wild, I’ll never forget A fatal crossing, we would take Your body, nature, it would break
Oh I ask, I beg, I plead Walk with me my Queen tonight And love again you’ll see I would give my everything Just for one more day So walk with me my Queen tonight Our exiled spirits free
But it was not to be Your ghost, a passing memory Staring at the yellow moon I wonder how you left so soon Now you’re resting peacefully Away from life’s cruel trickery So into madness I descend Together we’ll be when my time ends
