lyrics

Her name is Seileigh, Seileigh she said
You met her on the ocean in the cool night air
Her hair so white and eyes so red
You thought you had an answer to those hours of prayer
And decided you'd follow wherever she led

One day she took your hand when you were just seventeen
She came into your life right out of a dream
She took you to a downfall you'd be proud of today
And made you queen of the rosebuds in May

Her name is Seileigh, Seileigh you said
No other girl like her on God's whole green earth
With hair of moonlight and eyes of dread
You say you need to be shown what you're worth
And you give your life just to warm her bed

One day she took your hand when you were just seventeen
She came into your life right out of a dream
She took you to a downfall you'd be proud of today
And made you queen of the rosebuds in May

Oh Seileigh, you have her body
Seileigh, you have her soul
I only need to know
Seileigh, is that enough?
Is that enough?
Enough?
Enough?

Her name was Seileigh, Seileigh they said
The one who made you naught but a shell
With hair of a ghost and eyes of the dead
You gave her all but she led you to hell
You are fading away but you invoke her instead

One day she took your hand when you were just seventeen
She came into your life right out of a dream
She took you to a downfall you'd be proud of today
And made you queen of the rosebuds in May
She took you to a downfall you'd be proud of today
And made you queen of the rosebuds in May
The night you died was the night that Seileigh
Took you away
