When I close my eyes
And I see you there my bride
As we walk the autumn days
And at nightfall the stars above we'd gaze
The silver moon above would fill the night
With a cascade of lunar flames
Reflected in your eyes
Your lips
Your flesh
But then the light it fades
And in the shadow of your gaze
I feel an emptiness inside
As darkness takes my bride
So now I close my eyes
And see the night you died
For no stars were in the sky
On the godless winter night
But what am I to do alone
Without your loving sweet caress
No tender words
No gentle hand to guide me
Out of this darkness
I trace the lines upon your lips
And feel the tears fall from my eyes
As darkness takes my bride
I open up my eyes
I see you there my bride
On this ancient forest floor
You sleep forever more
The beauty of the withering flower
Beneath this starless sky
Frozen forever
As a nightmare in my mind
My withering flower
How beautifully you died
For the stars died with you
On this endless winter night
How beautiful it was to see
You die within these arms of mine
How beautiful it was to see
Your eyes reflect the lunar light
How beautifully this withering
Lover dies within my arms tonight
How beautifully
The darkness takes my bride
The beauty of the withering flower
Beneath this starless sky
Frozen forever as a nightmare in my mind
My withering flower
How beautifully you died
For the stars died with you
On this endless winter night
The death of my dearest lover
Beneath a starless sky
Tortured forever
By the terrors in my mind
My withered lover
How beautifully you died
For the stars died with you
On this endless winter night
