King Diamond - Miriam Lyrics
Curtains of back were inside the roomShutting out the light, the light that always hurt his eyesThere was nothing bright in this entire mansion... no, noExcept for the candlelight... the light... and the fire that burned real slowOh Miriam... why did you have to go and die?Curtains of black were inside the roomAbigail was not alone, there was someone else in here too"Come closer dear", said the shadow in the wheelchair"Stand by the fireplace, so I can better see your face"Oh Miriam, why did you have to go and die?[Solo: Andy]The shadow could not believe, the likeness in her faceIt looked as if his Miriam had come back from the grave"I am Count de La Fey, and you are?""Abigail", she whispered and shivered to the bone"Can I?", he said "Can I,.. can I call you Miriam?""Miriam... or Abigail is fineYou can even call me Lucy for it is just a name"He struggled out of the wheelchairSince his fall many years agoNow he could only walk by a cane, what a shame[Solo: Andy]"Don't move! Stay where you are", and then he was right behind herTouching her long black hair, he was breathing much harder nowThen he grabbed her headIn the pain she screamed as heYanked out a lock of that beautiful hair, oh dear oh dear oh dearHe quickly struggled across the floor to a smaller cabinetBehind glass door it said: "To My beloved Dear"It was then he started to compare, and she saw the other HAIRIn his twisted mind, she was back, but why"I must retire my dear in order to prepareYou should do the same, tomorrow an heir"
