Alexandra Leaving

 

             Suddenly the night has grown colder

　　　　The god of love preparing to depart

　　　　Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder 　

　
　　      They slip between the sentries of the heart

　　　　Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure
　
　　      They gain the light, they formlessly entwine

　　      And radiant beyond your widest measure

　　      They fall among the voices and the wine.
　　
　       　It’s not a trick, your senses all deceiving,

　　   　A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust 　　

 
　　      Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving
　　
　      　Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost
　
　　
　　Even though she sleeps upon your satin
　　
　　Even though she wakes you with a kiss

　　Do not say the moment was imagined
　
　　Do not stoop to strategies like this 　　
　　
　　As someone long prepared for this to happen
　
　　Go firmly to the window. Drink it in
　　
　　Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing
　
　　Your firm commitments tangible again. 　
　　
　　And you who had the honor of her evening
　　
　　And by the honor had your own restored
　　
　　Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving
　　
　　Alexandra leaving with her lord 　　　
　　
　　
　　As someone long prepared for the occasion
　
　　In full command of every plan you wrecked
　
　　Do not choose a coward’s explanation
　
　　that hides behind the cause and the effect.
　　
　　
　　And you who were bewildered by a meaning
　　
　　Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed
　　
　　Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving
　　
　　Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost
　
　　
　　迷失深陷在蓝色的眸中,say goodbye to u lost.
