Shall I Fall - Chamber - L'Orchestre De Chambre Noir

Misty veils obscure

This darkened place, our home

My hands are sore

My life spent in toil

Had to care for you

Since you were born

B: But hear this voice

Mother’s calling us

Promising tenderness and warmth

Oh, sister come

Can’t you hear her moan

She’s out there in the fen

S: Shall I fall, shall I fall, shall I fall for you

Shall I fall, shall I fall, shall I follow you

B: This flickering sound

Is guiding us

To our mother’s lap behind these veils

Oh, sister please

Leave all that grind

Let this song induce you to the light

B: Shall I fall, shall I fall, shall I fall for you

Shall I fall, shall I fall, shall I follow you

S: My love don’t go

Stay right by my side

In my arms you shall sleep becalmed

B: oh, sister please

I’m drained and freezing

The voice out there will care for us

B: There’s no more fear

No more pain

In mother’s embrace myself entrust

S: Don’t leave me now

My little love

In the clutches

Of the black butterfly

S+B: Shall I fall, shall I fall, shall I fall for you

Shall I fall, shall I fall, shall I follow you

S: It’s an illusion

No guiding light

Our mother’s dead and gone

We’re all alone

My brother see

This twinkling shine

Is a perfidious black butterflyMusic: N. Eis/ K. Kranich/ R. Hoffmann
