Softly as she falls, eva's come undone
It's what she wanted. girl as mad as birds
Eva's come undone. it's what she wanted
And when she comes undone we look away
But i like the way her hair looks in this light;
Like smoke and dreams
And ghosts that breathe
And fade to die beneath the first rays
Of the last day
Oh, no it's over. when she's fast asleep she shakes
Her head to wave the ghosts away
Her heart full of echoes, her head full of pills
She wakes up in make up, in feathers and furs
When she comes undone we look away
But i like the way her hair looks in this light;
Like smoke and dreams
And ghosts that breathe
And fade to die beneath the first rays
Of her last day
Oh, no it's over. borne of tears in sleeping eyes
We severed hands that troubled time
And chased a dream that
Lost its life forever in a song
