The Doll House |
| Fell from the path, it was nobody’s fault |
| That I was alone. |
| Time dripped from the trees |
| Left through the nail (I leapt through a lamp/land/lap (?) (?)) |
| I fell to my knees before the throne |
| And the crown was covered jewels, sparkling schools |
| The beautiful faun/falls/(?) |
| The magnificent battle was fought |
| And Cinderella’s soldier fish was caught |
| And the lady from the lake |
| Who helped me to escape |
| Led me to myself at last |
| Though I danced with the dolls in the doll house |
| The flower fled from my feet, |
| Tom Sawyer voice through the hole of the key, |
| Landed so gently. |
| Castles cover the cave, |
| I had no choice, the visions were brave |
| And the phantoms were friendly, |
| And Pirate Jenny was dancing for pennies, |
| The knucklebones tossed in a spin, |
| There were silver songs on her skin. |
| And she wasn’t caring when the ship came in. |
| And the lady from the lake |
| Helped me to escape |
| Led me to myself at last, |
| Though I danced with the dolls in the doll house |
