Might be a story you read in a book |
|
'Bout a irl who drank from the devil's cup |
|
Might be someone you know so well |
|
Just might be me, you never can tell |
|
Le dame Laveau burning at the stake |
|
You're the hero, but just a little bit too late |
|
Might be you, might be me |
|
Might be some gris gris that you just can't see |
|
Spirits in the bedroom |
|
Candles in the hall |
|
Shadows on the ceiling |
|
Don't answer the call |
|
I'm gonna take you back |
|
I'm gonna take you way back |
|
And give you |
|
All that you can stand |
|
I'm gonna give you |
|
All that you can stand |
|
Fires off the coast of Martinique |
|
Stories you've heard, you dare not speak |
|
Down on a rampart, you don't go alone |
|
Might be an angel of mercy |
|
Might be a black cat bone |
|
Echoes in the stairwell |
|
Curtains start to blow |
|
Sugar, Honey, a touch of steel |
|
There's something you should know |
|
I'm gonna take you back |
|
I'm gonna take you way back |
|
And give you |
|
All that you can stand |
|
I'm gonna give you |
|
All that you can stand |
|
Dance Colinda on St. John's eve |
|
Bells on her ankles |
|
Makes you believe |
|
Good time dresses on Lake Pontchatrain |
|
A vision in the rain |
|
Spirits in the bedroom |
|
Candles in the hall |
|
Shadows on the ceiling |
|
Don't answer the call |
|
I'm gonna take you back |
|
I'm gonna take you way back |
|
And give you |
|
All that you can stand |
|
I'm gonna give you |
|
All that you can stand |
