Like lost love I am by many sought

I have become that which most desire

I am lust and you shall forget me not

 

With Satan I have cast in my lot

For I am not one to fear the fire

Like lost love I am by many sought

 

So I cast my spell and poison thought

Causing great dreams to drown in mire

I am lust and you shall forget me not

 

Many have died for me and more have fought

I always burn bright like a funeral pyre;

Like lost love I am by many sought

 

Like a wisp I can ne’er be caught

I forever run and never tire

I am lust and you shall forget me not

 

So men collapse their souls I’ve bought

They’re the servant; I the sire;

Like lost love I am by many sought

I am lust and you shall forget me not
