Dance For The Dying Ophelia Lyrics

Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh-oh
Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh-oh
Ophelia
Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh-oh
Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh-oh
Ophelia
Is floating in the well, oh
With flowers and herbs
And water where words failed

Pretty lady knelt down beside the well
Watering her flowers and in she fell
But she didn't scream and she didn't fight
It just felt so nice sinking toward the light

'Cause he broke her down and he made her cry
And he stole the sparkle from her eyes
Ophelia
Has water to embrace her
When her lover has disgraced her
Water to erase
All of the sorrow from her face

Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh
Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh
Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh
Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh, oh

All your pretty hair, all your folds of clothes
How they dreamy drift, animate the flow
Like a frozen fall from a lofty height
Like a glowing star in the dark of night

Did he break you down? Did he make you cry?
Did he snuff the fires in your life?
Ophelia
Has water to embrace her
When her lover has disgraced her
Water to erase
All of the sorrow from her face

Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh
Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh
Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh
Uh-uh-uh-uh, oh, oh

Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh-oh
Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh-oh
Ophelia

Ooh
