"Black Stream" lyrics - DEAD CAN DANCE
DEAD CAN DANCE
"Black Stream"
Where the stars sleep in the calm black stream
Like some great lily, pale Ophelia floats
Slowly floats, wound in her veils like a dream
Half heard in the woods, halloos from distant throats
A thousand years has sad Ophelia gone
Glimmering on the water, a phantom fair
A thousand years her soft distracted song
Has waked the answering evening air
