I have vainly sought love and lost, yet
wait?alone I must fall fathoms-deep, before I find it, this I know
And to my sweet, but broken heart a silver
voice replies ?Like a butterfly: death will take you, and make you alive?
There will be no repentant eyes, nor broken
wings, Only a moment of faith, from hours of heart felt tears.
Oh tangled winds, with silver wings, do
bring, do bring This fallen bird, eyed with light, eternal love and night!
Do bring, do bring, silver shadows, to this
lifeless thing, Then I will sing, sing, in the far off hung sea waves?
I will sing, sing, in the gave, to the sea?s
harsh heartbeat, And as our voices meet, farewell, farewell to humanity;
The sea morns with grief, brings to me its
mystery? I hear it calling, calling, with untroubled, misty eyes:
I hear it calling, calling me: ?Come, I
will set you free!? Fathoms deep my echoes reach: ?I follow at thy will!??
