as i gaze into the night sky
and i drink deeply of the red wine
a warming feeling comes over me
unearthly magick surrounding me
silence isolation and somber solitude
are my only desires my only desires!
the rain falls ever softly upon mossy ground
like a funeral song oh how sweet the sorrow sounds
winter has betrothed me to desperation
the gray skies are closing in
let the evening wind take me away
and let the sacred wine forever flow
my heart feels cold cold and black
but the blessed wine will always take me back
back to a place a place i wish to be
with the ancient ones that came before me
to walk away from all i know
and leave it all leave it all behind
