lyrics
Let me not name it to you
You chaste stars
It is the cause
It is the cause
As smooth as monumental
Alabaster
If thou quench thee
Thou flaming minister
Put out the light
It must needs wither
Put out the light
And then
Put out the light
It must needs wither
So have I
Yet she must die
Oh now forever
Put out the light
As smooth as monumental
Alabaster
If thou quench thee
Thou flaming minister
So have I
Yet she must die
Oh now forever
Put out the light
Let me not name it to you
You chaste stars
It is the cause
It is the cause
Put out the light
You chaste stars
It is the cause
It is the cause
As smooth as monumental
Alabaster
If thou quench thee
Thou flaming minister
Put out the light
It must needs wither
Put out the light
And then
Put out the light
It must needs wither
So have I
Yet she must die
Oh now forever
Put out the light
As smooth as monumental
Alabaster
If thou quench thee
Thou flaming minister
So have I
Yet she must die
Oh now forever
Put out the light
Let me not name it to you
You chaste stars
It is the cause
It is the cause
Put out the light
