The Visitation

Lyrics

[Whispering and crying intro] I see, I see, I so I see, I so Achoo, achoo, achoo I see you, I see you, I see you I see, I see, I see, I see you I see, i see etc (no don't go!) No! No! Don't go! Don't Go! Nooo!! Nooo!!! [Screeching sound] Young girl with roses in her eyes Sits on a bed of white sheets The lights are off, the gloom begins To thicken as she waits She's waiting alone in the dark (waiting...) Where is the sun and flowered park? (we're always waiting...) Why do they always meet in shadow? [Crying] Young girl with roses in her eyes (I'm as close as your breathing...) Waits for the phosphorescent mouth (but you can't hear me...) It's blue and comes upon her neck In whispers like dry grass She's waiting for her lover's voice (I tried to talk to you...) The sun is gone, the music plays (but you wouldn't listen...) From the street corner and she cries Young girl with roses in her eyes Hugs close the dark and cries The words she hears are weak Her lover is not asleep, he's dead She feels his breathing by her side He reaches across the border Stretching his boneless hand towards her (...Death is silent, painless, I didn't know what happened I was suddenly standing above my body While you looked on too much in shock for tears I tried to speak, but couldn't I tried to talk to you, but you wouldn't listen And now we meet Like guilty lovers, in the dark, for such a hopeless moment And even as we meet, I feel you slipping from me And I go back, to my darkness...) The girl with roses in her eyes (my spirit lingers after you like a faint stream of clouds...) Speaks with her lover who is here (my mouth, hovers about you, forever...) Like vines their voices intertwine it is all they have (I see you waiting for me... summoning up the power as the light dies...) She struggles to hold him back (that light we loved...) He clutches but the power is gone And the pillows turn to chalk (Don't go, don't go, don't go...) (Please don't go...) (I'm slipping...) (I tried to speak, but couldn't (I'm slipping away) (Don't slip away) And now we meet, like guilty lovers, in the dark For such a hopeless moment (don't go please) And even as we meet, I feel you slipping from me (I'm slipping) (I feel something) And I go back, to my, darkness...) [Crying]
