I was born
In the calm before the storm
In the quiet hour of dawn
With the full moon in my eyes.
I was kissed
By the rolling river mist
That betrayed the lovers' tryst
A mysterious disguise.
Cut like a diamond
Sharper than steel
Sweet as the razor's edge
Before the jagged wheel.
I am lost
I have sold my heart at cost
On the bridges that we crossed
I have carved my name in stone.
Bitter wife
You have cut me like a knife
I could never take a life
That could never take its own.
I was born
In the calm before the storm
In the quiet hour of dawn
With the full moon in my eyes.
I will die
With the sun high in the sky
With the river rolling by
Far below the bridge of sighs.
In the calm before the storm
In the quiet hour of dawn
With the full moon in my eyes.
I was kissed

That betrayed the lovers' tryst
A mysterious disguise.
Cut like a diamond

Sweet as the razor's edge

In the quiet hour of dawn
With the full moon in my eyes.

With the sun high in the sky
With the river rolling by
Far below the bridge of sighs.
