Duchess Lyrics - Scott 4 - Scott Walker

It's your bicycle bells 

And your Rembrandt swells 

You're children like 

And still breathing 

It's your look of loss 

When you're coming across 

Makes me feel like a thief 

When you're bleeding 

Duchess, Duchess 

Light up your candles for me 

Duchess, Duchess 

Put all the love back in me 

It's the Persian sea 

Running through your veins 

You shed your names 

With the seasons 

Still they all return 

With there last remains 

As they lay them before you 

Like breezes 

It's your shimmering dress 

It says no 

It says yes 

It says i've nothing left for concealing 

It's your shapeless flesh 

And your old girl's grace 

It's your young girl's face 

That I'm breathing 

Duchess, Duchess 

Light up your candles for me 

Duchess, Duchess 

Put all the love back in me 

I'm lying 

She's crying
