Convent Girls

by the shade of your magnolia
i go down for release
and the seven ships of providence
will be falling, rowing near
And the convent girls
in their frilly white tights
will be chorus girls with they're names up in lights
and the bridal veils will be shimmering white
when once we talked in confidence
we now shall walk in fear
and the bridal ships of providence
are slowing drawing near
and the convent girls
in they're frilly white tights
will be chorus girls
with they're names up in lights
and the bridal veils will be shimmering white
shimmering white
whose that good doctor when you go to sleep
by the prayers of emotion we will want to weep
and you dance with your friends ,anyone I know?
and you dance with your friends ,anyone i know?
I will go like her, be on your feet
and the years are stretching on
where once we talked of openess
were now we're moving on
and the convent girls
in they're frilly white tights
will be chorus girls
with they're names up in lights
and the bridal veils will be shimmering white
shimmering whites
no more sleep till im an adult
theres no more sleep till i've grown up
there no more sleep till im an adult
now lift up my bread and drink from my cup again
