Current song lyrics
(Hammill)<br /><br />Slow motion in the quiet of the room;<br />so potent is the smell of her perfume<br />that you think she's eternal,<br />that you think she is everything...<br />but no-one knows what she is.<br />Repentance for all you should have said;<br />her entrance seems to raise you from the dead<br />and you think she's really with you,<br />and you think that she'll always stay,<br />always ready to forgive you,<br />always ready to grant you her mercy<br />but in her own way.<br />When she comes, she'll be a stranger;<br />struck dumb, you'll try to protest<br />as the drum beats out the danger...<br />too late, you should have noticed<br />that the lady with the skin so white,<br />like something out of Blake or Burne-Jones<br />always blocked out the light<br />and shadowed all you owned.<br /><br />Still you think she's forever,<br />yesterday and tomorrow...<br />but no-one knows where she is.<br />Still you swear that you can win her<br />and your prayer is that she'll want you;<br />aware - once a saint, now you're a sinner<br />and your sins are going to haunt you<br />when the lady with her skin so white<br />like something out of Edgar Allan Poe<br />holds your hand so very tight<br />and you hope that she'll never let go.<br /><br />Easy targets, easy crosswords, easy life:<br />these key margins leave you balanced on the knife,<br />bleeding darkly.<br />In the end it all comes down to sleazy bargains.<br />That hidden key - you tried so hard to find it,<br />all you can conceive is the effort to be worthy;<br />even now you need to be reminded<br />that La Belle Dame is without mercy.<br />The lady with her skin so white -<br />you never did quite catch her name -<br />now she holds you in the night<br />and she'll never let go again,<br />she'll never let go again.
