It's your bicycle bells and your Rembrandt swells Your children alive and still breathing And your look of loss when you're coming across Makes me feel like a thief when you're bleeding
Duchess Duchess Light up your candles for me Duchess Duchess Put all your love back in me I come listening I touch touching
With the Persian sea running through your veins You shed your names with the seasons Still they all return with the last remains And they lay them before you like reasons
With your shimmering dress it says no it says yes It says I've nothing left for conceiving Its your shiftless flesh and your old girl's grace Its your young girl's face that I'm breathing
Duchess Duchess Light up your candles for me Duchess Duchess Duchess Put all the love back in me
