The nocturnal carriage arrived again She was looking for another lady friend The young girl, lying fainted upon the ground A wolf in sheep's clothing had come around Had we known that day We would have sent her away That night she came our of her grave One look in her eyes and a young girl is her slave Carmilla is coming to stay When Laura was a child she thought she had a dream All of a sudden she began to scream The first time she had suffered the vampire's bite She had met Carmilla in her room that night A portrait... 1698 200 years... is that Carmilla's face? That night she came out of the grave One look in her eyes and a young girl is her slave Carmilla is coming to stay Why did the funeral hymn make her fly into a rage? And what is her real age? Why does she sleep in the day and vanish into the night? She seems to shun the daylight The nightmares came again, poor Laura A black cat... enters her room each night The beast would turn into a lady After Laura had the vampire's bite The lady would turn to go, then fade away Laura's health declined more each day "The oupire is going through the woods just like the wolf" Some would say The revenant slept in her coffin when it was the day If Laura was to live there was the one and the only way They found the blood-liner coffin where Carmilla slept by day ...stake through the heart and with a sword, struck her head away Sometimes even to this day Laura can hear her voice from far away That night she came out of her grave One look in her eyes and a young girl is her slave... Carmilla has come to stay
