Lady Midnight

I came by myself to a very crowded place
I was looking for someone who had lines in her face
I found her there but she was past all concern
I asked her to hold me, I said, "Lady, unfold me,"
But she scorned me and she told me
I was dead and I could never return.


Well, I argued all night like so many have before
Saying, "Whatever you give me I seem to need so much more."
Then she pointed at me where I kneeled on her floor
She said, "Don't try to use me or slyly refuse me
Just win me or lose me,
it is this that the darkness is for."


I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old,
Stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold."
"If we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored." “
So I walked through the morning, the sweet early morning
I could hear my lady calling,
"You've won me, you've won me, my lord “
You've won me, you've won me, my lord
Yes, you've won me, you've won me, my lord
Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord."
