[Begin]
[Ext. Night. Lestat sitting on a rooftop, watching the stars. He starts singing.]
I love your skin oh so white
[Lestat looks at his hands ...]
I love your touch cold as ice
[... he looks sad; he reaches out as if to touch someone's face ...]
And I love every single tear you cry
[... there's no one else there ...]
I just love the way you're losing your life
[... Lestat sighs and closes his eyes.]
[Int. studio. Band playing in a glass boot. Lestat, on the other side, is watching past them ...]
Ohohohohoh my baby, how beautiful you are
[... focus on the white wall, which turns pink, then red, then dark burgundy ...]
Ohohohohoh my darling, completely torn apart
[... we can see a silhouette forming in the background shadows ...]
You're gone with the sin my baby and beautiful you are
[... a slender man with long hair; no direct view of his real features or his face ...]
You're gone with the sin my darling
[... shadow turns as if to look at Lestat.]
[Ext. Lestat walking in the streets of New Orleans. Sequence of images.]
I adore the despair in your eyes
[... Lestat looking at a tomb stone in St. Louis Cemetery; shadow figure standing near an old gravestone ...]
I worship your lips once red as wine
[... Lestat walking towards the ruins of an old plantation; figure seems to be waiting for him near a broken staircase ...]
I crave for your scent sending shivers down my spine
[... Lestat in front of an old house in ruins, on Rue Royale; the figure looks down on him from the balcony ...]
I just love the way you're running out of life
[... Lestat running through the streets, dawn approaching.]
[Int. Same studio. This time, Lestat is in the glass boot, doing the vocals ...]
Ohohohohoh my baby, how beautiful you are
[... apparently he looks at someone in the other room ...]
Ohohohohoh my darling, completely torn apart
[... the female guitarist is on the other side of the glass, looking back at him ...]
You're gone with the sin my baby and beautiful you are
[... but Lestat reaches his hand out ...]
You're gone with the sin my darling
[... to the dark figure he can see over the girl's shoulder, in darkness.]
(Solo)
[Lestat playing thy electric violin. Dark background, over-imposed buds of red roses, opening in slow motion.]
[Band playing. Background: dark colours, over-impose shadow figure ...]
Ohohohohoh my baby, how beautiful you are
[... background slowly focus on figure's closed eyes ...]
Ohohohohoh my darling, completely torn apart
[... camera focus on Lestat ...]
You're gone with the sin my baby and beautiful you are
[... Lestat's eyes are wide opened ...]
You're gone with the sin my darling
[... he keeps on singing ...]
Ohohohohoh my baby, how beautiful you are
[... shadow eyes open slowly; revealing emerald green eyes...]
Ohohohohoh my darling, completely torn apart
[... band and singer begin to fade; start focusing on the eyes ...]
You're gone with the sin my baby and beautiful you are
[... image of green eyes full opened ...]
You're gone with the sin my darling
[... a blood tear starts falling from one eye.]
[End.]
