Within a Sleeping Forest

Once taken by the river
 Orpheus died in my arms
 His heart, ancient as this fallen world
 Fades away in the truth of all his heart
 ♪
 He is dull dead
 He was drowned there
 In my hands his fate
 He coldly died
 Voyage well across the sky, my friend
 ♪
 My pain floats down your river to a waterfall
 And in this light, hearing cries, I look up at you
 Your beauty and form appear as great wonders
 ♪
 Awful and yet you were born to my hopeless eyes
 His face, still now, it rests in cold hands and colder heart
 I shivered, comfortless in this lonely land
 ♪
 In a sullen wood, some years ago
 He played a song I didn't know
 The trees knew me and knew him more
 Whispered our names into their lore
 ♪
 Sing a song of joy with effortless breath
 I wrote the words to his death
 So on that day, near the glen
 My ink drew up his secret end
 ♪
 A kiss, your gift to give away so freely
 A gentle suffering thing you were
 So steep they fell, my tears to your lips
 ♪
 And that night will be forever
 And at night we live forever
 And I drew her near to me
 And away from him
 ♪
 Sin is the root of all sorrow
 So look upon, my well is dry
 Don't run, my lady
 Now please be mine
 Come on, my lover, you didn't even try
