Smoky autumn night, 
Stars up in the sky,
I see the sailin' boats 
Across the bay go by.
Eucalyptus trees hang above the street
And then I turn my head, 
For you're approachin' me.
Moonlight on the water, 
Fisherman's daughter, 
Floatin' in to my room
With a golden loom.

First we wash our feet 
Near the immortal shrine
And then our shadows meet 
And then we drink the wine.
I see the hungry clouds up above your face
And then the tears roll down, 
What a bitter taste.
And then you drift away 
On a summer's day where 
The wildflowers bloom 
With your golden loom.

I walk across the bridge 
In the dismal light
Where all the cars are stripped 
Between the gates of night.
I see the trembling lion 
With the lotus flower tail
And then I kiss your lips 
As I lift your veil.
But you're gone and then 
All I seem to recall 
Is the smell of perfume
And your golden loom.
