CAN I MEET YOU IN THE TWILIGHT TIME MY PALE GIRL, MY LITTLE ONE CAN I HOLD YOU CLOSE IN SOMEPLACE DARK OUTSIDE THE DAY, FAR FROM THE SUN
WILL WE MAKE IT THROUGH THE TWILIGHT TIME BEINGS OR DARK, OR DARKNESS’ PREY WILL YOU BLESS ME DEAR WITH ONE LAST TOUCH IN THE WANING LIGHT, THE DYING DAY
CHORUS: I CAN TASTE THE NIGHTSHADE ON YOUR LIPS AND FEEL THE EVIL IN YOUR KISS I SMELL MY BLOOD UPON YOUR BREATH MY FALLING TEARS FREEZE ON YOUR BREASTS
CAN YOU TAKE ME TO THE BLACKEST PITS OF HELL CAN YOU SHOW ME SINS NO MORTALS EVER FELT CAN WE LOVE IN WAYS INFERNAL AND UNCLEAN? BLACK ENOUGH TO MAKE ALL ANGELS FROM NINE SPIRES WEEP
AS I SHIVER HERE WITH ONE LAST EVENSONG YOUR SKIN LOOKS SO UNTAINTED FROM THE LIGHT OF DAY WILL YOU HOLD ME ON THE THRESHOLD OF DESIRE OR ARE YOUR THOUGHTS FOR ME AS COLD AND ASHEN GREY?
CHORUS
WHEN THE BELL TOLLS MIDNIGHT WILL YOU FADE FROM ME TO END THIS LIFE? OR IN THIS HOLLOW FORM ENDURE SHALL I WANDER THROUGH THIS VAST AND EMPTY NIGHT OR BASK IN SOLITUDE UPON STYGIANS SHORE
