Dead to the world my body was sleeping

On my mind was nothing at all

Come a mist an aire so appealing

I'm here a whispering you summouned I called.

I formed me a presence whose aspect was changing

Oh he would shift he would not shift at all

We sat for a while he was very engaging

And when he was gone I was gone on a smile.

With a strange way of walking

And a strange way of breathing

More lives than a cat

That let me astray

All in all he captured my heart

Dead to the world and just

Slipped away.

I heard me a music that drew me to dancing

Lo I turned under his spell

I opened my coat but he never came closer

I bolted the door and whispered oh well.

With a strange way of walking

And a strange way of breathing

More lives than a cat

That let me astray

All in all he captured my heart

Dead to the world and just

Slipped away.

I laid in the rushes the air was upon me

Wondering well I just couldn't discern

Will he come back come back to me

Oh I whispered will you ever return.

I was feeling sensations in no dictionary

He was less than a breath of shimmer and smoke

The life in his fingers unwound my existence

Dead to the world alive I awoke.

With a strange way of walking

And a strange way of breathing

Less than a breath of shimmer and smoke

The life in his fingers unwound my existence

Dead to the world alive I awoke

Alive I awoke

Alive alive I awoke

Alive I awoke

Alive I awoke

Alive

I awoke

I awoke

Alive I awoke

Alive alive-o

Alive alive-o.
