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 |
