The leaded window opened 
To move the dancing candle flame 
And the first moths of summer 
Suicidal came, 
Oohh - oohh suicidal came 


And a new breeze chattered 
In its May-bud tenderness 
Sending water-lielies sailing 
As she turned to get undressed 


And the long night awakended 
And we soared on powdered wings 
Circling our tomorrows 
In the wary month of spring 


Chasing shadow slipping 
In a magic lantern slide 
Creatures of the candle
on a night-light ride.


Dipping and weaving
Flutter through the golden needle`s eye 
In our haystack madness, 
butterfly-stroking on a Spring-tide high. 


Life`s too long (as the Lemming said ) 
As the candle burned and the moths were wed. 
And we`ll all burn together as the wick grows higher 
Before the candle`s dead. 


The leaded window opened 
To move the dancing candle flame. 
And the first moths of summer 
Suicidal came, 
oohh - oohh suicidal came 


To join in the worship 
of the light that never dies 
In a moments reflection 
of two moths spinning in her eyes.
