Suzanne Vega - Edith Wharton's Figurine lyrics

Edith wharton's lovely figurines Still speak to me today From their mantlepiece in time Where they wrestle and they play With pa**ions and with prudences Finances and fears Her face and what its worth to her In the pa**ing of the years See the portrait come to life See the vanity behind Cause in the struggle for survival Love is never blind Now, olivia lies under anasthesia Her wit and wonder snuffed In a routine operation Her own beauty not enough, Her pa**ions and her prudences Finances and fears Her face, what it was worth to her In the pa**ing of the years See the portrait come to life See the vanity behind Cause in the struggle for survival Love is never blind Edith whartons lovely figurines Still speak to me today From their mantlepiece in time Where they wrestle and they play We lie under anesthesia Our wit and wonder snuffed In our routine operations Our own beauty not enough
