The eyelids bow, a tremor in my frame,
The eyelids bow, a tremor in my frame,
Why, oh why, I cannot name.
A sudden shift within my gait has come,
A sudden shift within my gait has come,
Why, oh why, why, oh why, I am numb.

Explain, if you will,
Explain, if you will, my love, the cause,
Why torment me tonight, my heart's applause?
Why torment me tonight, my heart's applause?
My life beats fast, my veil begins to fall,
My life beats fast, my veil begins to fall,
Why, oh why, I heed the call.

My bangles left, my anklets softly chime,
My bangles left, my anklets softly chime,
A lightning bolt now runs through space and time,
A lightning bolt now runs through space and time,
How can I reach you? My spirit's in a climb,
How can I reach you? My spirit's in a climb,
Why, oh why, in this sublime?

Now draw me near,
Now draw me near, my love, and hold me fast,
Without you, my heart is overcast,
Without you, my heart is overcast,
Come to me, love, my soul is now surpassed,
Come to me, love, my soul is now surpassed,
Why, oh why, forever cast?
The eyelids bow, a tremor in my frame,
The eyelids bow, a tremor in my frame,
Why, oh why, the endless game?
