In Vienna there are ten little girlsA
a shoulder for death to cry onB
and a forest of dried pigeonsC
There is a fragment of tomorrowD
in the museum of winter frostE
There is a thousand windowed dance hallF
-
Ay ay ay ayG
Take this close mouthed waltzH
-
Little waltz little waltz little waltzH
of itself of death and of brandyI
that dips its tail in the seaI
-
I love you I love you I love youJ
with the armchair and the book of deathK
down the melancholy hallwayG
in the iris's darkened garretL
-
Ay ay ay ayG
Take this broken waisted waltzH
-
In Vienna there are four mirrorsM
in which your mouth and the ehcoes playG
There is a death for pianoD
that paints little boys blueJ
There are beggars on the roofN
There are fresh garlands of tearsO
-
Ay ay ay ayG
Take this waltz that dies in my armsP
-
Because I love you I love you my loveQ
in the attic where the children playG
dreaming ancient lights of HungaryI
through the noise the balmy afternoonR
seeing sheep and irises of snowD
through the dark silence of your foreheadS
-
Ay ay ay ayG
Take this I will always love you waltzH
-
In Vienna I will dance with youJ
in a costume withT
a river's headS
See how the hyacinths line my banksU
I will leave my mouth between your legsV
my soul in a photographs and liliesW
and in the dark wake of your footstepsX
my love my love I will have to leaveY
violin and grave the waltzing ribbonsC
