|
Soon we made our way |
|
To the place the people came to celebrate |
|
Smile as I pass by |
|
Raise their drinks, congratulate me, shake my hand |
|
Far away I heard a violin playing |
|
A woman in the distance gently swaying |
|
The way that lady played |
|
She conveyed her every feeling with her song |
|
And my, how she filled the room |
|
Sweet perfume could not possess |
|
The air in quite this way |
|
She danced about the people while she's playing |
|
Everybody laughing, dancing, singing |
|
The sound she made was simply mesmerizing |
|
The look she gave, no less that crucifying |
|
As the music played |
|
Like a snake of fine silk and black smoke |
|
She began my way |
|
The closer she wandered near |
|
I could hear the faint sound of rattles shaking |
|
When her eyes met mine I recognized her |
|
The woman from the painting... |
|
Yes, she looked just like her |
