Dark At Dawn Maid Of Stone Lyrics

Maid Of Stone Lyrics

Fade away, my love

Under painful clay

Deep in the desert

Where
no mortal's ever set foot

There she is lain

With a rose in her mouth
and her hand

Into the voidness

Her sandy hair without colour, for
good?



I've been praying, Lord,



Since she's left me

So all alone in the darkness

Guardian made of stone,

Won't you
answer

My prayers for her coming home

My dear, please speak to
me

Beloved, answer me

Give me a sign to rely on

I know you
still hear me

Even you cannot see me

On my knees, don't deny me



Lifeless womb



Her grave, a pyramidal tomb

Crying
and praying

That her leaving the light was no end

Then it awoke

After hours and days

And then spoke the rose made of stone

"Who
loves shall be never alone."



I've been praying, Lord,



Since she's left me

So all alone in the darkness

Guardian made
of stone

Gave me answers to

My prayers for her coming home

My
dear, she spoke to me

Beloved, answered me

Gave me a sign to rely
on

I know you still hear me

Singing sad melodies

For this
rose-water's accompany
