She held tight to her photograph Entranced by it's mystery The sun it rose and set for days With echos of her agony What good's a heart without a home? And no one to call her own The waters rushed up to bathe her Of her time and drown the memories What's more beautiful than blood Caked on her velvet skin? The dress she wore that night remains Awash in scarlet sin A haunting tale of sorrow Underneath the murky deep There's still a longing in those eyes It hasn't ceased to be Her broken spirit still exists The pain calls her up to rise And though I wanted to dismiss as a trick of light or in my mind Standing there so elegant she cries Sing to me and ease my troubles, boy This afterlife has known no joy Because a death of love took me before my time Sing to me and provide peaceful rest For though I'm gone I can't forget Sing a song and croon to me in the midnight Sing to me Her broken spirit still exists (Her broken spirit still exists) The pain calls her up to rise (The pain calls her up to rise) And though I wanted to dismiss as a trick of light or in my mind Standing there so elegant she cries Sing to me and ease my troubles, boy This afterlife has known no joy Because a death of love took me before my time Sing to me and provide peaceful rest For though I'm gone I can't forget Sing a song and croon to me in the midnight Sing to me Sing to me Sing to me Sing to me
