Lyrics:
It happened not so long ago
My invitation to the darkest dance (of them all)

I met her in a smoke-filled room one night
There were colored lights and dancing all around
My heartbeat racing to the frantic sounds

She held a glass of red wine in her hand
Her long black hair brushed gently
on her smooth ivory skin
She looked at me and smiled that's when it began
Beautiful and surreal
So beautiful
She's mine

Sweet woman you were the one
who set my soul afire
You felt so sure that you had known me
for so many years
I fell in love with the idea of her
in my arms in my arms

Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
She'll spit the rancid taste of life
right from her mouth
Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
Dance of damnation candlelight burning like stars

Her laughter flowed like wine
Her lust was far beyond crime

How could she love me
How could she see as her saviour bloody saviour
I was her rapture dressed in black
And when I think alone I'm still thinking of her

Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
She'll spit the rancid taste of life
right from her mouth
Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
Dance of damnation candlelight burning like stars

The falling leaves spin thru the autumn air
Tell me is something wrong
The moon was full as shadows stood their ground
I cannot go on without you
I watched her crying red liquid tears
She whispered to me soufly in my ear
'Please come with me'
Those pale blue eyes were piercing thru my soul
One kiss and then we'll be forever
I've fallen from her sweet embrace I'm sorry
My dear I'm sorry I cannot go

Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
She'll spit the rancid taste of blood
right from your throat
Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
Dance of damnation candlelight burning like stars
Autumn my autumn my queen of autumn's gone
Dance of damnation candlelight burning like stars

You'll find the way that you deserve
Just hope and pray it's who you serve
You'll find the way that you deserve
Just hope and pray it's who you serve
You find the way
Pray it's who you serve............
