Lulu's Song

MUSIC: D. Schoufs LYRICS: D. Schoovaerts/U. Balfe Chains she wears like a crown For to slavery bound From the day they have met Chains that she's dragging around Never making a sound From the day she said 'yes' Chains, to keep her tied to the ground While he is slipping away Queen in a glorified cage With only silence to page The lonely night long Wait for the footsteps to fall For his voice in the hall Calling her name again Pray for all the sweetness long gone When all that's left is the pain Shame that she's keeping inside Hiding misery behind Fancy curtains of lace Vain, she's hoping in vain He would kindle the flame That once burned in his eyes Rain that beats like time on the pane When every second's the same Rain that beats like time on the pane When every secon's the same Woman, don't bury that heart of gold Behind a cold face of stone
