I'm searching for the words for the monologue at the end of the song
"nights in white satin" by the Moody Blues. There is a song first then
a man comes on and recites a poem and I can't find the words to his
monlogue.

The poem at the end of "Nights in White Satin" is called "Late
Lament". It was written by Moody Blues drummer Graeme Edge and read on
the albums by then-keyboardist Mike Pinder.

Late Lament

(spoken)
?Breathe deep in the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bedsitter people look back and lament
Another day's useless energy's spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her sun
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is grey and yellow white
And we decide which is right
And which is an illusion??
