Theatre of Tragedy - ...A Distance There Is...
текст песни

Come in out of the rain thou sayest - but thou ne´er step´st aside;
And I´m trapp´d , i am trapped
A distance there´s...
None, save me & the bodkin - pitter-patter on the roof:
Behold! - ´tisn´t the rain; thence me it has to be -
I´ll not drink thy vintage wine, my dear;
Thou hast heed´d that I´m of innocence, yet thou let´st thy lass into peril -
Thou let´st me be parchéd;
my heart, my heart, my heart
my heart, my heart, my heart
My heart´s of frailthy, my pale skin is huéd 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 beneath -
But run thou sayest; I run, t run, i run
i run, i run, i run
i run, i run, i run
i run, i run, i run
i run, i run, i run
And there & then I behold that a time will come when I again dead will be.
Thou tell´st me to leave without delay -
I leave, i leave, i leave, ileave.
I leave with my bodkin & my tears in my hands;
Lo! - the shadows, the sky descending;
So by a dint of smite I gait ere before I run & melt together with dusk.
In my mind in which is this event,
But the season isn´t supposed to change anyway?!
After all those yeahrs thou left´st me down in the emotional depths -
The sombre soakéd velvet-drape is hung upon me,
Turning my feelings, turning my feelings away from our so ignorant world:
All the beautiful moments shared, deliberately push´d aside -
...a distance there´s...
After all those yeahrs thou left´st me down in the emotional depths -
The sombre soakéd velvet-drape is hung upon me,
Turning my feelings away from our so ignorant world:
All the beautiful moments shared, deliberately push´d aside -
...a distance there´s...
...a distance there´s...
