a moonbeam peeks down from the tiny window to greet me trying to create some light in this lonely darkness
in these halls amongst the gothic images i dwell, created by artists living when i entered this hell
yes friends since centuries i've haunted here forlorn, i know every single brick in these castle's walls
gargoyles on the roof are my only friends, only yearning thoughts can i to my beloved send
i yearn her warmth and the gaze in her eyes, though it has been ages since the world heard her last sigh
still i'm sure we will meet whenever i reach the beyond between our hearts there has always been
an unbreakable bond...
for centuries i've tried to sove the secret of gold, until i manage i'm trapped in these archways cold
ages back the lord i served gave me this task, must find the answer though it might forever last
all these endless nights i carry out experiments on how to make make gold
confidence eroded, but still hard at heart i know i must go on
people passing by at night can hear me sighing for my life
i only want to know would the lord have cursed me if it wasn't his wife...? |
