Whispering Your Name

Ghosts of lost melody dwell in the shade
Diving into drunken twilight

Stranger paths awaiting in the night
Recalling old road that shall forever fade
Drink my memory away
Enchant me now
Until there is no power of day
Call me back
You know I will follow you through the night
As I’m already drunk from your wine
And falling asleep I will whisper your name
Through fading fantasies
Withering in feverish dreams
In which you are my king
And I’m your queen
Fog embraced my shoulders 
Covered the road with thick white
Howling voice of winter lullaby
Sipping away all cursed memories
Silver of moonlit ocean
Will take me into oblivion
My curse and my passion
Autumn shelters the heart loosen into the dark
Forever turning me to the light
And falling asleep I will whisper your name
Through fading fantasies
Withering in feverish dreams
In which you are my king
And I’m your queen
I will call you until the last snowflake falls 
Drunken, asleep
I will dream of sea-like eyes sparkling in midnight awe
Brighter than stars of all lost worlds
Whispering your name I will fall asleep
Swallowing a weep
Holding a bitter cry within so deep
Until you catch me in a dream
And call my name shattering the real 
And falling asleep I will whisper your name
Smiling back at you, catching your breath
Dwelling still on my lips like a dream of ancient tales…
