Lovesick for Mina

One might see in Mina my disease
 ♪
 But it is She who has infected me for all eternity
 As the sun slips the tearaway stars
 ♪
 Into the scented scheme of night
 I kissed her mouth like a dark red rose
 Set upon a marbled dream of white
 So pure of thought like a Vestal statue
 Jewelled with a God-lent grace
 I was close to coming when She bid adieu
 Fuelled by the heartache rent upon her face there
 Oh Mina, obscener
 Thoughts obsess my days
 Oh Mina, obscener
 Thoughts possess me that I must now obey
 ♪
 They say the darkest hour is that before the dawn
 ♪
 When nothing in one's power
 Can dissipate the great forlorn
 Shadows of fire that haunt me
 Like risen whispers of her name
 For dawn is a dusk wherein needs must erupt from the grave, aflame
 Written in the dead of night, dead of night
 And riding on the burning wind
 Smitten by her read delight, read delight
 My words alight like leaves of sin
 ♪
 Stepping through a mirror
 The princess of the emerald glass
 Brought me one sip nearer
 Love's infernal past
 They say Hell hath no furies like a woman scorned by life
 When the Heavenly Judge and juries
 Participate to chain this wife
 With forced virtues, Her secret needs drew on my foreign blood
 On warm wet nights, with storm-wracked bites
 I gave her Eden after the flood
 Written in the dead of night, dead of night
 And riding on the burning wind
 Smitten by her read delight, read delight
 My words alight like leaves of sin
 ♪
 Verona, Marishka, Aleera
 ♪
 Brides of old and goddesses all
 Forgive my wishes to be always near her
 Forever or whenever seas recall
 This Aphrodite from my embrace for as Mars whom her lips placate
 I tore these shores with wars of hatred
 Before our Paris set his fate in Helen
 One might find mistake in winning tragedy
 For all eternity
 ♪
 I am still lovesick for Mina
 I am still so lovesick for her

 I am still lovesick for Mina
 I am still so lovesick for her
