Under blue moon I saw you, so soon you'll take me
Up in your arms to late to beg you, or cancel it though I know it must be
The killing time, unwillingly mine
Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you, so cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world, the sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon, will come too soon
Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give yourself to him


Under blue moon I saw you, so soon you'll take me
Up in your arms to late to beg you, or cancel it though I know it must be
The killing time, unwillingly mine
Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give yourself to him
Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give yourself to him, you give yourself to him


Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give yourself to him, you give yourself to him


Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give your self to him
Fate, up against your will, through the thick and thin
He will wait until, you give yourself to him
