Paul Gordon - The Graveyard lyrics

YOUNG JANE Helen, I have brought you a lily today For the roses were frail And the petals fell away The morning mist has kissed your grave Rest now in sleep Our secrets will keep Till we speak again tomorrow When I lay myself down to sleep tonight I pray I might Know why God has tempered judgment But with mercy But with sorrow JANE & YOUNG JANE Let the world forsake me Let them do their worst, I will Withstand it all They will not break me BOTH JANES & ENSEMBLE There is another world that watches us I'm not afraid The angels know when we have sinned Or we have been betrayed MISS SCRATCHERD Jane Eyre! YOUNG JANE Yes, Miss Scratcherd. MISS SCRATCHERD Get to your cla**! You're late as usual. YOUNG JANE Yes, Miss. MISS SCRATCHERD Miserable little child! JANE & ENSEMBLE As I lay myself down to sleep tonight I pray I might Be granted strength to see The spark of heaven's guiding light JANE My rebellion waits The silent cry my spirit sings Goes far beyond these gates Oh, Helen, what awaits?
