Music & Lyrics by Kristia Di Gregorio - copyright 2013

lyrics

I live in the half-world of shadowy delights
We live for the moment, we live for the night
Our women are nightbooms in Alençon lace
And the kindness of candlelight takes years off a face

Behind the thick curtains which drown out the din
Your men come to visit and practice within
Society frowns on transgressions of class
And would not be amused by the fortunes amassed

Cornelia, Cornelia, what about love?
Is your heart so hard that you've just given up?
Cornelia, Cornelia, what about love?
What about love?

The artists, the writers, the drunkenly bold
Are drawn to our light like the fools are to gold
We are the muses, immortals in paint
And we will live on while your memory fades

Cornelia, Cornelia, what about love?
Is your heart so hard that you've just given up?
Cornelia, Cornelia, what about love?
What about love?

We are the demimonde, let down your hair
Our time is once upon but no fairytales here
It's just a little crime, it's not a sin
So leave all your guilt behind.... when you pay to get in

Cornelia, Cornelia, what about love?
Is your heart so hard that you've just given up?
Cornelia, Cornelia, what about love?
What about love?
