Lilywhite lilith

The chamber was in confusion-all the voices shouting loud.
I could only just hear, a voice quite near say, "Please help me
through the crowd"
´Said if I helped her thru´ she could help me too, but I could
see that she was wholly blind.
But from her pale face and her pale skin, a moonlight shined.
Lilywhite Lilith,
She gonna take you thru´ the tunnel of night.
Lilywhite Lilith,
She gonna lead you right.
When I´d led her through the people, the angry noise began to grow.
She said "Let me feel the way the breezes blow, and I´ll show
you where to go."
So I followed her into a big round cave, she said "They´re coming
for you, now don´t be afraid."
Then she sat me down on a cold stone throne, carved in jade.
Lilywhite Lilith,
She gonna take you thru´ the tunnel of night.
Lilywhite Lilith,
She gonna lead you right.
She leaves me in my darkness,
I have to face my fear,
And the darkness closes in on me,
I can hear a whirring sound growling near.
I can see the corner of the tunnel,
Lit up by whatever´s coming here.
Two golden globes float into the room
And a blaze of white light fills the air.
I could only just hear, a voice quite near say, "Please help me
through the crowd"
´Said if I helped her thru´ she could help me too, but I could
see that she was wholly blind.
But from her pale face and her pale skin, a moonlight shined.
Lilywhite Lilith,
She gonna take you thru´ the tunnel of night.
Lilywhite Lilith,
She gonna lead you right.

And a blaze of white light fills the air.
