so silent it seemed this tragic vision
painted before my eyes amidst withering leaves
I had found my beloved bloodstained and pale
falling into the forever so silent aware of my presence
she turned towards me her agonizing stare one
last breath and she whispered everything dies
before my tearfilled eyes dead and silent
a golden leaf of autumn falling before my tearfilled eyes
this withering beauty this eternal autumn so silent so silent
awakened this dying season such a beauty to behold
oh autumn hath arrived a tragedy painted dead fallen
am I without thee I am lost in a region of doleful shades
I am withering away I dwell in the shadows of life
a dismal state of mind I'm in pain oh sun
I hate thy beams leave me here to sleep and dream
in the midst of falling leaves in a garden of endless grief
I yearn for thee my precious one beneath a pale grey sky
I dream of your embrace how I wish I had you near in this
oh so dolorous life where dreams turn to dust
I have lost all my hope of lasting pain and unpresent
bliss this soul of mine I welcome thee eternal sleep
silent advent of white death I feel so cold silent advent of white death
I feel so cold crystallized tears falling still
oh autumn hath died enshrouded am I
in thy mist of endless gloom enthralled
am I by thy beauty how I wish how I wish
in the midst of falling snow in a garden of endless grief
my forlorn soul of misery where peace and rest can never
dwell hope never comes I see no point in going on still
I dream but now I know I dream a lie
so I close my eyes and I sigh a life of shattered dreams
I can no longer bear I enter thee eternal sleep
of sorrow blue and clad in mist dancing midst
the meadows of my dreams my precious one my fallen
beauty fallen beneath a dismal cloud I recall that dreary morning
I ran to the shores of her eyes I was there watching the seas
and it was all silent upon the sea a candle caravan the final stream
of angel gleam there was no farewell of solace before the caravan
was gone of sorrow blue and clad in tears her cordial hands
reach for me my peaceful dream her soothing warmth
fallen beneath a dismal cloud I bow to her beautiful name
the flowers need not to be watered these tears
won't let the soil dry where her name is carved in stone
you were my core you were my soul lips of roses mane of gold intoxicated
we lay entwined I wore the carnal crown of sorrow blue and clad
in soil my mind still echoes from her songs earth and time
are calling my name let me fall beneath this dismal cloud
