Away, flowing into the mist
Of the morning air
It slipped as a castle ghost
Away from my Oom Paul

Away, into the mist
As fingers into a glassy
Pond away from sight
Away from my Oom Paul

And with it my thoughts
My thoughts of you
My hoping of June
And sultry nights again

Away with my heart
Away as a dream
Away with the smoke
As a castle ghost

Mingling with the gray
Tumbling in the light
Marrying as two
Wandering in flight

As a castle ghost
Away from my Oom Paul
