[Music: Englund/Danhage/Ekdahl, Lyrics: Englund]
|
|
Her gentle hand in his
|
Revelation serves as bliss
|
They walk away from sunshine
|
Led to believe the lie
|
His lust for untouched youth
|
A well kept secret sealed
|
His every night confession
|
Reveals the most profane obsession
|
|
Their trust is won and fate is conquered
|
The essence of conviction
|
|
Why me?
|
I did no wrong
|
I did not know
|
You lied to me
|
I meant no harm
|
And I am blaming me
|
|
Hand in hand down the altar aisle
|
Her father's presence brings her to a smile
|
A grand welcome from the assembled crowd
|
Greeted as the "circles" first child
|
Undressed to nothing and held to the sky
|
Her smile is gone and she starts to cry
|
Desperately seeking her father's eyes
|
But he sees nothing
|
He's blind.
