Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
Easing to keep upright & well
Without the restoration of the mistress which shows
Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
They never realise
Their owner disguised
For only her to see
Since she was a child
Played a round of cards
Picnicked with her dolls
& Kept them from the rooms
That would’ve said goodbye
Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
But she has not been for a long while
So, she is not so sure to trust
& All she can do more
Is pace up and down the cold halls
Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
Easing to keep upright & well
Without the restoration of the mistress which shows
Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
They never realise
Their owner disguised
For only her to see
Since she was a child
Played a round of cards
Picnicked with her dolls
& Kept them from the rooms
That would’ve said goodbye
Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
But she has not been for a long while
So, she is not so sure to trust
& All she can do more
Is pace up and down the cold halls
Lavender eiderdowns puffed up like smoke
Here to rejoice in a haze of hope
Steaming off like ceramic pots
These china dolls aren’t here to fuss
