Love Song For A Vampire
Come into these arms again
and lay your body down
The rhythm of this trembling heart
is beating like a drum
It beats for you it bleeds for you
it knows not how it sounds
For it is the drum of drums
it is the song of songs
Once I had the rarest rose
that ever deemed to bloom
Cruel winter chilled the bud
and stole my flower too soon
Oh loneliness Oh hopelessness
to search the ends of time
For there is in all the world
no greater love than mine.
Love o love o .... still falls the rain
Love o love o .... still falls the night
Love o love o .... damned forever
Let me be the only one
to keep you from the cold
Now the floor of heaven is laid
the stars are bright as gold
They shine for you they shine for you
they burn for all to see
Come into these arms again
and set this spirit free
Written and performed by the wonderful Annie Lennox.

Oh, I do love Annie Lennox! Vampires scare me, but I love Annie.
Lavinia: It's quite often for me. :)
PT & E: Isn't she wonderful? I like vampires too, but the smooth, heavily-accented ones with widow's peaks and red-silk lined opera capes. :)
Hi, blog princess g. Visited your blog after you commented on Derfwad Manor. I like it! Especially the books.
I'm another blogger named g. Sigh. so there's you and Mrs. G. And me.
Maybe I should change my blog-name? Or maybe we three should collaborate!
Welome G! What a cool initial. I've bookmarked your blog and am coming over to visit really soon. :)
