| [00:02.200] | Suddenly the night has grown colder |
| [00:09.350] | The god of love preparing to depart |
| [00:16.827] | Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder |
| [00:24.147] | They slip between the sentries of the heart |
| [00:30.403] | Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure |
| [00:38.504] | They gain the light, they formlessly entwine |
| [00:46.174] | And radiant beyond your widest measure |
| [00:53.453] | They fall among the voices and the wine. |
| [01:01.196] | It’s not a trick, your senses all deceiving, |
| [01:08.947] | A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust |
| [01:16.160] | Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving |
| [01:24.515] | Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost |
| [01:32.679] | Even though she sleeps upon your satin |
| [01:40.014] | Even though she wakes you with a kiss |
| [01:47.300] | Do not say the moment was imagined |
| [01:54.612] | Do not stoop to strategies like this |
| [02:01.930] | As someone long prepared for this to happen |
| [02:08.836] | Go firmly to the window. Drink it in |
| [02:15.333] | Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing |
| [02:23.912] | Your firm commitments tangible again. |
| [02:32.233] | And you who had the honor of her evening |
| [02:39.281] | And by the honor had your own restored |
| [02:47.237] | Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving |
| [02:55.021] | Alexandra leaving with her lord |
| [03:02.762] | Even though she sleeps upon your satin |
| [03:08.964] | Even though she wakes you with a kiss |
| [03:16.064] | Do not say the moment was imagined |
| [03:23.831] | Do not stoop to strategies like this |
| [03:32.299] | As someone long prepared for the occasion |
| [03:39.641] | In full command of every plan you wrecked |
| [03:47.463] | Do not choose a coward’s explanation |
| [03:54.582] | that hides behind the cause and the effect. |
| [04:00.944] | And you who were bewildered by a meaning |
| [04:08.011] | Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed |
| [04:15.229] | Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving |
| [04:19.097] | Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost |
| [04:30.248] | Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving |
| [04:38.406] | Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost |
| [00:02.200] | Suddenly the night has grown colder |
