Charlotte Corday |
If you hear a step upon |
Your stair tonight |
If you see a shadow in |
The candle light |
It’s only your imagination |
Leading you astray |
See her for a moment |
Then she’ll slip away |
The ghost of Charlotte Corday |
She wanders down the hallway |
In a long black dress |
And lingers by the fireplace |
Like a faint caress |
Just what it is that brings her here |
No man alive can say |
See her for a moment |
Then she melts away |
The ghost of Charlotte Corday |
Stars in the window like a panoply |
Covering everything |
River of night |
Stars in the window |
See them shining for |
Anyone else, anyone else |
The clock ticks in the dark and now |
The night is still |
The air is like a murmur |
On the window sill |
All at once there’s someone there |
That only you can see |
Seeking the forgiveness |
That will set her free |
The wind has taken away |
The words she wanted to say |
The sky is now turning gray |
The dawn is turning away |
The ghost of Charlotte Corday |
