歌词
Half alive and lost was I
Cast upon her shore
Six finds of ocean shells
Led me to her door
A lay of the night queen
Circled by the moonlight
She was not surprised I'd come
And said, "I will make you right"
Her hair was the raven
Eyes were of the sea
And I knew I was spellbound
When she gazed at me
"Follow me to the great hall
Our minds will be at peace
We'll speak of the future
And of our release"
When the sun shines at midnight
And the phantoms fall like diamonds from the sky
We will walk along the river
Stealing orchids from magnolias 'til we die
By the light of the full moon
We took the meat and wine
Seven birds in the courtyard
Sang to us in rhyme
She said I was chosen
And I must obey
I saw her sitting on a black owl
And I heard her say
When the sun shines at midnight
And the phantoms fall like diamonds from the sky
We will walk along the river
Stealing orchids from magnolias 'til we die
She showed me a small room
A fireplace alight
New love in the warm glow
Settled for the night
We laughed in the midday
And walked along the sea
But I knew I must leave her
If I would be free
One midnight approaching
She said, "The time has come
Don't stray to the aspens
And we will be as one"
The sun came a-finding
I headed for the trees
Knowing now I had lost her
I fell down on my knees
When the sun shines at midnight
And the phantoms fall like diamonds from the sky
We will walk along the river
Stealing orchids from magnolias 'til we die
When the sun shines at midnight
And the phantoms fall like diamonds from the sky
We will walk along the river
Stealing orchids from magnolias 'til we die
When the sun shines at midnight
And the phantoms fall like diamonds from the sky
We will walk along the river
Stealing orchids from magnolias 'til we die
