<br>I came by myself to a very crowded place;<br><br>I was looking for someone who had lines in her face.<br><br>I found her there but she was past all concern;<br><br>I asked her to hold me, I said, "lady, unfold me,"<br><br>But she scorned me and she told me<br><br>I was dead and I could never return.<br><br><br><br>Well, I argued all night like so many have before,<br><br>Saying, "whatever you give me, I seem to need so much more."<br><br>Then she pointed at me where I kneeled on her floor,<br><br>She said, "dont try to use me or slyly refuse me,<br><br>Just win me or lose me,<br><br>It is this that the darkness is for."<br><br><br><br>I cried, "oh, lady midnight, I fear that you grow old,<br><br>The stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold."<br><br>"if we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored."<br><br>So I walked through the morning, sweet early morning,<br><br>I could hear my lady calling,<br><br>"youve won me, youve won me, my lord,<br><br>Youve won me, youve won me, my lord,<br><br>Yes, youve won me, youve won me, my lord,<br><br><br><br>Ah, youve won me, youve won me, my lord,<br><br>Ah, youve won me, youve won me, my lord."
