Having lost both worlds in love's cruel sway,
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
Having lost both worlds in love's cruel sway,
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
The desert weeps, a desolate embrace,
The ocean sighs, a mournful, hollow space.
The desert weeps, a desolate embrace,
The ocean sighs, a mournful, hollow space.
You left, and with you, joy did fade away,
The spring of life, now withered and astray.
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
A fleeting chance for sin, a mere four days,
A fleeting chance for sin, a mere four days,
We've seen the strength, the Maker's hidden ways.
We've seen the strength, the Maker's hidden ways.
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
The world, it turned me from your memory's keep,
The world, it turned me from your memory's keep,
More treacherous than you, the workaday sleep.
More treacherous than you, the workaday sleep.
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
By chance, a smile, upon my face did bloom,
By chance, a smile, upon my face did bloom,
Don't ask the heart, consumed by endless gloom.
Don't ask the heart, consumed by endless gloom.
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
Having lost both worlds in love's cruel sway,
He departs, through nights of sorrow's grey.
