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 |
