Das Lied Fur Alma - With Apologies To Gustav Mahler

Dark music floods my chamber Like a slowly rising tide That laps against the silence Where my fondest dreams reside. Dark music bathes the morning With its languid, liquid tune, Conundrum-like concerto, Every note a cryptic rune. Dark music wakes me gently From the warm embrace of sleep And sings to me of treasures I can have, but never keep.
