Pavane For My Dead Daughter

Pavane for my dead daughter So Innocent So Chaste So young Unfulfilled She died in my arms in the courtyard The courtyard of my villa in Spain What had she done to deserve this? What had I done? Is there nothing up THERE? No Pity No love Above How dare THEY preach of love? My hatred knows no bounds I’d crucify HIM once again And again and again I sit with her in my arms In the courtyard The courtyard of my villa in Spain I’ll lead the sad Pavane The sad processional dance For my darling daughter I am bereft What had she done to deserve this?
