Rebecca

Rebecca, Rebecca
Release that sweet rose
That poses no threat to your eyes
Rebecca, Rebecca
You've let yourself go
Rebecca, forgiven by I
Snake eyes will dawn
like a miss unadorned
doomed to haunt
and again we are born.
Rebecca, forgiven by me
Striking the earth, for it gave her no spore (?)
And there and she is feared
By the lovers of our loo- ooo- ooord
Forgive her,
Rebecca, born sweetly into sin
Bleached her saved forevermore
Rebecca, Rebecca
Crawled into her skin
And there she will stay forevermore.
Forevermooo-ooo-ore
Rebecca, Rebecca,
Pulled out of a needle's eye
Pulled up from death back into life.
A shameful way for a soul to die,
Rebecca, I'm right by your side.
