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
