Soon we made our way To the place the people came to celebrate Smile as I pass by Raise their drinks, congratulate me, shake my hand
Far away I heard a violin playing A woman in the distance gently swaying
The way that lady played She conveyed her every feeling with her song And my, how she filled the room Sweet perfume could not possess The air in quite this way
She danced about the people while she's playing Everybody laughing, dancing, singing
The sound she made was simply mesmerizing The look she gave, no less that crucifying
As the music played Like a snake of fine silk and black smoke She began my way The closer she wandered near I could hear the faint sound of rattles shaking
When her eyes met mine I recognized her The woman from the painting... Yes, she looked just like her
