1) Suddenly the night has grown colder
The god of love preparing to depart
Alexandra lifted on his shoulder
Invisible, but naked to the heart

2) Close/Now attended by the ghosts of pleasure
and (all) drunk with need/longing, they formlessly entwine
And radiant/Her radiance beyond your stubborn/wildest measure
She slips between the voices and the wine

And drunk with luck, they foremlessly entwine

Suddenly you feel your lives unweaving

far beyond the station/pattern where they crossed

Suddenly/Silently your life and hers unweaving
Unreadable the pattern where they crossed
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving
then say goodbye to Alexandra lost

And (when?)/now you see your life and hers unweaving
