The Late Pearl Attaway Songtext
von Austin Wintory & Tripod

Dear loving friend
Sorry to inform
I will miss our rendezvous

I have been detained
For I am lying dead
On the tiles of Waterloo

Halt the horses!
Still the wheels
I shall move no more today!

Fondest regards
Sincere apologies
From the late Pearl Attaway!


Broken doll
Open eyes
Silent lips of blue

Tangled hair
Bed of blood
On the tiles of Waterloo

Halt the horses!
Still the wheels!
And await this cruel delay!

I am undone
A sudden blade has come
For the late Pearl Attaway!

Halt the horses!
Still the wheels, and await a better day!

Lo! I depart
for a brighter destination
Yours in hope, Pearl Attaway
