|
Manderley was a dream of |
|
Full moon and empty sky |
|
Lost lands and sunken cities |
|
Wave of silk from a perfect smile |
|
Though the gates are held fast |
|
Once again you're inside |
|
There the key to the past |
|
Is buried by her side |
|
Rebecca |
|
Shattered Cupid stowed away |
|
You behaved like a parlour maid |
|
Tongue tied newly wed bride |
|
Back in all your yesterdays |
|
Dressed to kill at the ball |
|
Eager to show what you wear |
|
Never to excel |
|
In a house that she still shares |
|
Rebecca |
|
Day by day she's your reality |
|
Day by day a stronger personality |
|
If by fire she could reclaim |
|
The very walls that scream her name |
|
Ashes aglow on the breeze above |
|
Her house of plenty but not of love |
|
Drowning just as in life |
|
The manicured lawns are gone |
|
Fleeting as her kiss |
|
Lonely as her song |
|
Rebecca |
