Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She climbs up the stairs
By the light of a candle
Then the door with no handle
Is closing behind her again
[Verse 2]
She places the light on a chair by the window
Says a prayer while the wind blows
And then in her bed clothes
She hides
[Verse 3]
Now she's safe from the darkness
She's safe from its clutch
Now nothing can harm her
At least not very much
[Verse 4]
What will you dream of tonight, Lady Rachel?
What will you dream of tonight?
Who will you dream of tonight, Lady Rachel?
Who will you dream of tonight?
[Verse 5]
She climbs up a hill
And is handed a parcel
Then she unwraps the parcel
And discovers a castle inside
[Verse 6]
The drawbridge is open
And a voice from the water says
"Welcome, my daughter
We've all been expecting you to come"
[Verse 7]
She climbs up the stairs
By the light of a candle
Then the door with no handle
Is closing behind her again
[Verse 8]
Now she's safe from the darkness
She's safe from its clutch
Now nothing can harm her
At least not very much
[Verse 9]
What will you dream of tonight, Lady Rachel?
What will you dream of tonight?
Who will you dream of tonight, Lady Rachel?
Who will you dream of tonight?
[Verse 10]
She's safe from the darkness
She's safe from its clutch
Now nothing can harm her
At least not very much
[Verse 11]
What will you dream of tonight, Lady Rachel?
What will you dream of tonight?
Who will you dream of tonight, Lady Rachel?
Who will you dream of tonight?
