lyrics

Molly wakes up from her sleep
with pictures of her family
they're looking on by the bed
where the nurse keeps the
bottles and syringe
Molly stares at telephone
prisoner of the old folk's home
but nobody calls
and the time is upon us
so take your medicine

Your son he dropped by today
and he wanted to say
that he hopes you're feeling better
But you were sound asleep
so he tiptoed away
but he wrote a lovely letter
"I wish you could come home again"

Molly please come over dear
the children from the church are here
they want to sing you a song of the lord
he's prepared a place for you
Molly sits down in a chair
all the nervous children stare
reluctant they sing
as the pastor is offering
food to everyone

But as the nurse she looked away
Molly slips from the room
so no one would see her crying
Down the corridor then out in the street
where the cars were flying by her
Oh Molly ran away today.

Molly lies down in a field
underneath the sunny veils
closing her eyes
to the site of the sun
as it sinks behind the hill
Deep in sleep her spirit rose
left behind her body froze
there in the field
where she'd played in her youth
and she'd race down to the mill

Molly passed away today
and they found her they say
in a field behind the market
All alone and lying there
with a cold icy stare
and a picture in her locket
. . . it's Molly as a little girl

An amazing album by The Greek Theatre with a blend of soft Psychedelic sounds combining a little Progressive rock, and soft New Age / Dream Pop vocals. This is Excellent music by an excellent band! Reminds of mid to late 60’s psychedelic, soft psychedelic rock with a touch of 70 progressive rock, and current Dream Pop vocals.
