Bashee playing magician sitting lotus on the floor,
Belly dancing beauty with a power driven saw,
Had my share of nightmares, didn't think there could be much more,
Then in walked Roderick Usher with the Lady Eleanor!
She tied my eyes with the ribbon of a silken ghostly thread,
I gazed, with troubled vision, on an old four - poster bed,
Where Eleanor had risen to kiss the neck below my head,
Then bid me come a - long with her to the land of the dancing dead!
But--it's al - right, Lady Elea - nor! Al - right, Lady Elea - nor-------!

A (She...)
(Bass riff adapted for guitar)
She...gazed with the love and beauty, like a mother to a son,
Like living, dying, seeing, being, all rolled into one,
Then, all at once, I heard some music playing in my bones,
The same old song I'd heard for years, re - minding (a -) me of home!
But--it's al - right, Lady Elea - nor! Al - right, Lady Elea - nor-------!

I'm al - right where I am!

A (Then...)
(Bass riff adapted for guitar)
Then...creeping on towards me, licking lips with tongues of fire,
A host of golden demons screaming lust, and base desire,
And when it seemed for certain that the screams could get no higher,
I heard a voice, a - bove the rest, screaming you're a liar!
But--it's al - right, Lady Elea - nor! Al - right, Lady Elea - nor-------!

I'm al - right here in your arms!
