Lone He's Playing the Bassoon
Lone He's playing the bassoon
Pulling down the argent blinds
He shuts out the sight of moon.
Half bare, half cloaked
in an ebon velvet coat
Her limbs dances to his tune
He rejects her Winter-light
through the marble- mosaiced room
Lone He's playing the bassoon
Pulling down the argent blinds
He shuts out the sight of moon
He sleeps longer with the night
In his dream dust rides each tide
Casting shadows upon the edge
of an early compromise
Lone He's playing the bassoon
Pulling down the argent bllinds
He shuts out the sight of moon
Fog have made him become blind
Frost kept him forever cold
He couldn't feel , He couldn't see
All those beams of molten-gold
Glistened on the pebbled shore
which lead always to his door.
He shuts out the sight of moon
Pulling down the argent blinds
Lone He's playing the bassoon
Playing with the vacant night
with the wind,the rain, and tide
He stopped playing the bassoon
just to watch the crescent moon.
