[00:00.640] A Distance There Is -Theatre Of Tragedy
[00:23.540] Come in out of the rain thou sayest but thou ne'er step'st aside
[00:37.340] And I am trapp'd I'm trapp'd
[00:41.510] A distance there is
[01:08.500] None save me and the bodkin pitter-patter on the roof
[01:21.410] Behold 'tis not the rain thence me it has to be
[01:45.160] My heart My heart My heart
[01:50.340] My heart My heart My heart
[02:10.750] And there and then I behold that a time will come when I again dead will be
[02:27.190] Thou tell'st me to leave without delay
[02:30.680] I leave
[02:32.550] I leave
[02:33.620] I leave
[02:35.620] I leave
[02:53.60] I leave with my bodkin and my tears in my hands
[03:06.980] Lo the shadows the sky descending
[03:12.840] So by a dint of smite I gait ere I run and melt together with dusk
[03:42.20] In my mind in which is this event
[03:47.200] But it seems as if naught is to change anyway
[04:08.430] After all these years thou left'st me down in the emotional depths
[04:15.660] The sombre soaked velvet-drape is hung upon me
[04:22.490] Turning my feelings away from our so ignorant world
[04:29.100] All the beautiful moments shared deliberately push'd aside
[04:39.150] A distance there is
[04:46.390] A distance there is
