Bài hát The Poorest Waltz Báo Lỗi

The Poorest Waltz




Across the cedar covered river

Within the night that covers them

Up the hill toward dark gates

An approach so sweet yet again


Proffer the sightless with wine

Crank the old gramophone


To go up and dance with the blind girls

A secret so holy and dire

To waltz in the arms of innocence

Hushed delights from the choir


Shadows long and playful

Cast with broken old candles

Gowns worn and stressed

Yet graceful in tired old sandals


Strike up the scratchy old music

Tonight they won’t dance alone


Alas, the music does fade

Back to the village they creep

And leave the sanatorium

Its bars and rules, Just so
