When Madeleine appeared it always rained, |
|
the people locked their houses, drew the curtains, |
|
prayed and painted crosses on their doors. |
|
They wondered who would be the next for last respects . . . |
|
began rehearsing. Dressed in black with white |
|
carnations, weeping 'til their eyes were sore. |
|
And Madeleine would feel their sorrow, she |
|
only wanted friends, but the lady's doomed to |
|
wander until the very end--'til the end of time! |
|
It's just the price she had to pay for life eternal |
|
and she's sorry, and she's lonely--would love to make amends. |
|
But where Madeleine appears it always rains, the |
|
people lock their houses, draw the curtains, pray it |
|
won't be them--wandering 'til the end of time! |
|
We gather in a strict formation, hold hands in a |
|
circle and at twilight we all we all walk around the |
|
stones. And spirits dance, and bodies roll, |
|
hallucinations curtsey as the river priestess |
|
consecrates the bones. And that's the way it will be |
|
'til the end of time . . . |
