Death Waits I Lyrics by Art Schop

DEATH WAITS I

0

Like a withered crone in the shadow of the sycle
Like a debutante at the funeral of my youth
Like a poisoned kiss on the lips of my new veiled bride
(he waits)
What waits behind the door, and who
Angel or devil what's in store
Before the door there's you
There beneath my pillow when I forget to wake
And among my friends when they visit late at night
In your fair hands to put the pеnnies on my eyes
What waits bеhind the door, and who
Angel or devil what's in store
Before the door there's you
We're plucked and we wither like buds for the vase
To crumble to nothing alone in the maze
But Death hasn't found you and Death never will
He waits for you now and he'll wait for you still
In the final nail to secure my coffin
In the lilac bush planted on my grave
On the new made bed sheets stretched without end
What waits behind the door, and who
Angel or devil what's in store
Before the door there's you
