Intro: |
I came by myself to a very crowded place |
I was looking for someone |
who had lines in her face |
I found her there but she was past all concern |
I asked her to hold me, I said, "Lady unfold me." |
But she scorned me and she told me |
I was dead and I could never return |
Well, I argued all night like so many have before |
Saying, "Whatever you give me, |
I seem to need so much more." |
Then she pointed at me where I |
kneeled on her floor |
She said, "Don't try to use me |
or slyly refuse me |
Just win me or lose me |
It is this that the darkness is for." |

I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, |
I fear that you grow old |
The stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold." |
"If we cry now," she said, "It will just be ignored." |
So I walked through the morning, sweet early morning |
I could hear my lady calling |
"You've won me, you've won me, my lord |
You've won me, you've won me my lord |
Yes, you've won me, you've won me, my lord |
Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord |
Ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord." |
