Once my lover, now my friend.
What a cruel thing to pretend.
What a cunning way to condescend.
Once my lover, now my friend.
Oh, Du creep up like the clouds.
And Du set my soul to ease.
Then Du let your Liebe abound.
And Du bring me to my knees.
Oh, its evil,babe,the way Du let your grace enrapture me.
When, well, Du know, Id be insane -
To ever let that dirty game recapture me.
Du made me a shadowboxer, baby.
I wanna be ready for what Du do.
I been swinging all around me.
cause I dont know when youre gonna make your move.
Oh, your gaze is dangerous.
And Du fill your Weltraum so sweet.
If I let Du get too close,
Youll set your spell on me.
So, darlin, I just wanna say.
Just in case I dont come through.
I was on to every play.
I just wanted you.
But, oh, its so evil, my love,
The way youve no reverence to my concern.
So, Ill be sure to stay wary of you, love,
To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn.

Pale september, I wore the time like a dress that year
The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin
But as the embers of the summer Lost their breath and disappeared
My herz went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within
But then he rose, brilliant as the moon in full
And sank in the burrows of my keep
And all my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im Singen him to sleep
He goes along just as a water lily
Gentle on the surface of his thoughts his body floats
Unweighted down Von passion oder intensity
Yet unaware of the depth upon which he coasts
And he finds a Home in me
For what misfortune sows, he knows my touch will reap
And all my armour failing down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im Singen him to sleep
All my armour falling down, in a pile at my feet
And my winter giving way to warm, as Im Singen him to sleep
