dolly parton - sandy's song lyrics
and the last thing i’d recall
her body standing on the stone
sandy wiping her grey eyes
i was pleased and frightened
to see a grownup woman cry
she blamed her housemaid for her mind
but i think they all knew it had to happen – some time.
i had rushed home from school
to see my favourite show
and as it happened, it was deadly cold that day
and as i peeled my mittens frozen to my wrists with snow
i swore i heard a voice come from the living room
and say:
“oh… god
oh… god
oh… well…”
and when i peered into that room
my little abdomen took sick
sandy hanging from the light
her levis wrapped around her neck
it was a sight to see
old sandy finally seeing me
and though she couldn’t speak
i had a sinking feeling that she would have said:
“oh, darling… more mascara?”
she looked so peaceful in the air
the lightbulb shining in her hair
her face was free
it frightened me
she looked happy
i guess she found a difference
and i thought about the joke
where the man keeps up his rotting wife
she had maggots in her mouth
i wondered if i would sleep that night
and then the car drove up
and then the car drove up
and i remember sleeping
and i remember sleeping…
and they wrapped her up and drove away
and now i have this crazy fantasy…
what if sandy died in front of me?
