Back in 1887, The Convent Of Our Lady was built,
It was part of a school for girls run by grey nuns;
1971- demolish, sad that tilt,
Art gallery wanted it and offered big sums.
It was part of a school for girls- run by grey nuns,
Reconstructed in the heart of the gallery;
Art Gallery wanted it- and offered big sums,
After ten years, rebuilt with skill and mastery.
Reconstructed- in the heart of the gallery,
Yes, all the various components stored for years;
After ten years- rebuilt with skill and mastery,
Oh, beautiful the interior, it brings tears.
Yes- all the various components stored for years,
Marble columns, windows, alter, soaring fan vaults;
Oh, beautiful the interior- it brings tears,
Huge open space, it would make a good place to waltz.
Marble columns, windows, alter- soaring fan vaults,
1971 demolish- sad that tilt;
Huge open space it would make a good place- to waltz,
Back in 1887- The Covent of Our Lady was built.
