Ecstasies that might have been
But i knew her not
Or knew her no longer
A tale that should have been told
Has withered in the bud
At the conclusion of a daydream.
All has faded away
As hues so intimately blended
All has faded away
As hues so intimately blended
We lost ourselves
In the flames of a candle
We lost ourselves
In the embers of a soft fire.
Ways were parted
As darkness invaded daylight.
One last taste of her purple wine lips.
A man must laugh or die
And not yield to gloomy sorrow.
At variance with truth,
I cast my will adrift
And pray, and pray and pray
To find a way, to find a way
Back to the honeydew and you.
Strawberry fields vanish
In hues so intimately blended.
All fades away
All fades away
All fades away.
