Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She lives in the attic, she lives in the attic
She watches over me
There's a candle burnin', candle burnin'
Burnin' since I left last May
[Verse 2]
In her room, she danced the tango
Entangled in her memories
I hear her callin', I hear her callin'
Callin' out for me
[Verse 3]
I feel her sadness, I feel her sadness
Breakin' silently
Her heart is beatin', her heart is breakin'
I feel it as I breathe
[Verse 4]
In her room, she danced the tango
Entangled in her reverie
Can't you see, now?  Don't shed a tear, now
Don't shed a tear for me
[Verse 5]
Cheery blossom rain will fall
(Wash my sins away)
Cheery blossom rain will fall
[Verse 6]
There's a piano playin', there's a piano playin
A broken symphony
I hear her singin', I hear her singin'
A song she wrote for me
[Verse 7]
In her room, she danced the tango
Entangled in her memories
I hear her callin', I hear her callin'
Callin' out for me
[Verse 8]
Cheery blossom rain will fall
Wash my sins away
Cheery blossom rain will fall
[Verse 9]
She lives in the attic, she lives in the attic
She watches over me
