Album: They Whispered You Had Risen (1999)

Naked She Lay To The Virgin Snow


[Music and Lyrics: Oneil Alexander]

Her dying embrace still haunts within
through the blackest shade of nightfall
her enchanting voice it whispers serenades
a dark romance. . . yet never again
fate so tragic is mine to keep
forever will I miss her last dying kiss

As the sun sets before my very eyes
so lifeless she sleeps never to rise
an erotic dream of a winters kiss
so warm it melts like the snow in my hand

An ebony tear sheds only for you
beyond this sorrow deep within me
a promise we made evermore
I loved you and still I do

"The light of our dying sun
faded so long ago
captured by this immense nightfall
my sweet goddess. . .
so pale so cold
naked she lay to the virgin snow"

Her dying embrace still haunts within
through the blackest shade of nightfall
her enchanting voice it whispers serenades
a dark romance. . . yet never again
fate so tragic is mine to keep
forever will I miss her last dying kiss

The time we shared your virgin kiss
and that of mine you took from me
I surrender my everything to you
then you gave your self to me

Under a sunless sky
beyond the midnight hours
to dance in the shadows while the sun sleeps
I held you with affection in my weak arms
I wish I never let you go

As I walk the path of this lonely journey
dreamlike it rains sadness so endlessly
awaiting the dusk to descend
remembrance and my tears for you
shall fall eternal. . .
