Paul Shapera - Annabel Raises The Dead lyrics

[Verse 1: Annabelle] Winding all the dials and the wires and the spires and the tests for the connections and injections still to run Capacitors and meters and the alkali and beakers The restating of equations for the phase about to come Please come back to me there's so much we could be Please come back, with voltage I invoke Please come back from empty cracks and berths of black Come to me, I'm summoning the Ghost [Pre-Chorus] Be my angel, my angel Be my angel, rescue me Be my angel, my angel Be an angel be with me [Chorus] Please come back from bowels of black From silent shores to me once more Through veils and gates and seas of slate To blood wet moors where I await ashore [Verse 2] Years of all my theories and hypothesis and inquiries No gathering cadavers and they kicked me out of school All alone with theorems and experiments and endless tests Years in labs and number-lands but now I've reached the goal Please come back so we can have a life at last Please come back, I grab at heaven's throat Please come back, I beckon, beg and cry and laugh Come to me, I'm summoning the ghost [Pre-Chorus] Be my angel, my angel Be my angel, rescue me Be my angel, be my angel Be an angel, be [Chorus] Please come back from bowels of black From silent shores to me once more Through veils and gates and seas of slate To blood wet moors where I await ashore (She sings quietly and tenderly to the mannequin construct) [Verse 3] Please come speak to me Please come speak to me All the things we can share and conceive If you'll come speak to me I remember you from school You were dashing and I so uncool You didn't know I was alive until that one night we spoke and you kissed me But then I was expelled You married her as well and now you‘ve died, but I can bring you back to life and soon you'll speak to me (She gradually gets more and more impa**ioned) [Pre-Chorus] Be my angel, be my angel Be my angel, rescue me Be my angel, be my angel Be an angel be with me (3x) [Bridge] Please come back so we can have a life at last Please come back, I grab at heaven's throat Please come back, I beckon, beg and cry and laugh Come to me, I'm summoning the ghost [Chorus] Please come back from bowels of black From silent shores to me once more Through veils and gates and seas of slate To blood wet moors where I await ashore
