A date with a vampire de The Floating Men

Now the clouds are towering over rainbridge station
again today the clouds will yield no rain
she lights her last and turns her eyes away from the window
and wonders is there no end to the pain
she bathes and dries by candlelight and stares into the mirror
she brushes out her hair until it shines
she slides into her gown with just the breeze beneath to cool her
she lines her lips and eyes and sips her wine
"lie down don't cry
just wipe those teardrops from your eyes
since it's too late to wonder ;
She hears the hinges creaking on the front door below her
she hears the tap of boot heels on the stairs
she turns away to watch the curtains shudder when he enters
he'll breathe upon her throat and she won't care
"lie down don't cry
just wipe those teardrops from your eyes
since it's too late to wonder ;
"i'll cower here beneath the sky"
"lie down don't cry
just wipe those teardrops from your eyes
since it's too late to wonder ;
i'll cower here beneath the sky"
