Black like a rose
That fell on the floor
near to your toes
In days before

Black like a night
In the ivory tower
In her darkest hour

So he must be
One to show me
How to live
Never die

Oh, my dear
it's time to step aside
Beware
You've become your foeman's bride
The higher you will go
The deeper you can fall
So close your eyes
And let the darkness call
