A Distance There Is (Live)

Ome in out of the rain thou sayest but thou ne'er step'st aside
And i am trapp'd
A distance there is
None save me and the bodkin pitterpatter on the roof:
Behold! 'Tis not the rain thence me it has to be
I will not drink thy vintage wine my dear
Thou hast heed'd that i am of innocence yet thou let'st thy lass into peril.

Thou let'st me be parched
My heart is of frailty my pale skin is hued damask
When thou thy tears hast hidden "come back!" thou sayest
There i soon am to be but how am i to run when my bones my heart!
Thou hast me bereaft!
But run thou sayest i run
And there and then i behold that a time will come when i again dead will be
Thou tell'st me to leave without delay
I leave with my bodkin and my tears in my hands
Lo! The shadows the sky descending
So by a dint of smite i gait ere i run and melt together with dusk
In my mind in which is this event
But it seems as if naught is to change anyway?!
After all these years thou left'st me down in the emotional depths
The sombre soaked velvetdrape is hung upon me
Turning my feelings away from our so ignorant world:
All the beatiful moments shared deliberatlely push'd aside
A distance there is.
