[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
(Slow) Slow motion in the quiet of the room;
So potent is the smell of her perfume
That you think she's eternal
That you think she is everything...
But no-one knows what she is
[Verse 2]
Repentance for all you should have said;
Her entrance seems to raise you from the dead
And you think she's really with you
And you think that she'll always stay
Always ready to forgive you
Always ready to grant you her mercy
But in her own way
[Pre-Chorus]
When she comes, she'll be a stranger;
Struck dumb, you'll try to protest
As the drum beats out the danger...
Too late, you should have noticed
[Chorus 1]
That the lady with the skin so white
Like something out of Blake or Burne-Jones
Always blocked out the light
And shadowed all you owned
[Verse 1]
