Lady Adelaide shows no emotion
|
Colder than a wave in the Arctic Ocean
|
She waited all her years for those 3 words
|
That never reached her ears
|
They just went unheard
|
|
Porcelain and frail, slender shoulders
|
A breeze of gusty gale could knock her over
|
She knew a handsome man who she gave her body
|
But he did not take her hand
|
And her heart broke softly
|
|
Now she's a bird with broken wing
|
She likes the ideas of things
|
More than what they are bound to bring
|
|
Lady Adelaide
|
And with her beauty in slow fade
|
She is so fearful the will say
|
That she is a bed that's been unmade
|
Lady Adelaide
