Enter me gently 
 I break in the light 
 Cover my eyes 
 With the rags of my life 
 Was I dreaming? 
 Or did you say: 
 "The frontiers are falling 
 It's time to be slipping away 
 Let's slip away 
 Let's slip away" 
  
 All things fall from me 
 The bonds and the veils 
 All things blow by me 
 My sorrows have sails 
 Was I dreaming? 
 Or did you say: 
 "The empires are fading 
 It's time to be slipping away 
 Let's slip away 
 Let's slip away" 
  
 What am I to do? 
 Don't leave me 
 What is there to say? 
 I really... 
 We're just wasting time 
 Let the night takes its place 
 Colour my eyes 
 With the dusk of this wonderful day 
 Let's slip away 
 Let's slip away 
  
 Letters from lovers 
 Are lining my grave (?) 
 Some came too early 
 And some came too late 
 Were you speaking? 
 Or did I say: 
 "The frontiers have fallen 
 It's time to be slipping away 
 As you call me 
 My hands they fall open 
 My mouth it is frozen 
 The (???) stumbles is (???) 
 I'm falling slow-motion 
 Dissolve"
