Story behind the song
A dear friend dragged me to the Velvet Underground and a few other Gothic venues around Queen St in Toronto. She was dressed in an beautiful gown from the 1800's, the atmosphere was ethereal with all the unique costumes, flashing lights, pounding music and people totally absorbed in their dance to escape the mundane.
Lyrics
Mistress of My Senses
Swirling mists encircle the portals of my mind
She beckons me through the gates of time
Yesterday or tomorrow, Which will be the sorrow
That I must leave behind
Time uncontrolled has no direction
And I've failed again to make connection
What is right or wrong
I am not that strong
The consequence to reckon
Bathed in soft starlight, my desire and delight
She calls my name aloud
My dark eyed midnight princess, mistress of my senses
Dances in her black velvet gown
A Nave am I before such a queen
Such radiant beauty I've seldom seen
Never a sun will rise, to match the fire in her eyes
She embodies all my dreams
Tender lips I kissed, moist as morning dew
Darling I've surrendered my heart and soul to you
To you I'll sing my praise, till my dying days
I've always been in love with you
Bathed in soft starlight, my desire and delight
She calls my name aloud
My dark eyed midnight princess, Mistress of my senses
Dances in her black velvet gown
