Ligeia
I do not remember where we did meet
Lengthened years have built my mind, memories [Incomprehensible]
Yet with instability one thing stands too clear
Lady perfection, mystery of whom I shed a tear
Air woven divinity, mind, soul in victory
Cured of her malady, could this be my lost
Ligeia?
Air woven divinity, mind, soul in victory
Cured of her malady, could this be my lost
Ligeia?
Sickness fell upon Ligeia, all knew that she would die
Midnight came to lay her rest, farewell
Opium dreams, grief-stricken years, I took another bride
Replacing that which I did have, Ligeia why?
Air woven divinity, mind, soul in victory
Cured of her malady, could this be my lost
Ligeia?
Air woven divinity, mind, soul in victory
Cured of her malady, could this be my lost
Ligeia?
Chronic disease, my luck cursed
My new wife has died
Coming from her bed of death, I thought I heard her cry
Could a corpse cold, stiff, sedate, sob in the bed it lie?
Approaching her, I chilled to stone for it did swiftly rise
I can never be mistaken, they were, they were Ligeia's eyes
Air woven divinity, mind, soul in victory
Cured of her malady, could this be my lost
Ligeia?
Air woven divinity, tears shed, vitality
Cured of her malady, yes, this is my lost
