Lyrics

It's slipping from her shoulders
Like an answer to a prayer
Waiting for her moment
She's gorgeous, she's unaware
Knowing she's been here before
But can't remember when
Restlessly, she's stepping out again
A candle in the sacral cavern
High upon the hill
Swearing to remember
A kiss and a prayer, a kiss and a thrill
A six-bladed star, a private scar
A dancer stands quite still
A lit one under Jesus
Putting four francs in his till
Looking at me
Across this room
Maybe thinking I don't care
But turn around in the darkness
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
A black cloak, a sepulchre
High upon the hill
Yeah, you swear you remember her
The Madonna stands so still
A six-bladed star, a private scar
The wind which blows so chill
The flame which sheltered Jesus
Now dances to your will
Looking at me
Across this room
Maybe thinking I don't care
But turn around in the darkness
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
I'll be there
