NOTHING CAN STOP ILEANA
Lyrics
Fathers and lovers make lumbering shadows
(Don’t look away, don’t you look away)
Their frail ambitions can lead to the gallows
But she’s not afraid
Oh, Ileana!
A tangle of traps set to mangle her pride
(Don’t look away, don’t you look away)
But scoundrels and monsters cannot break her stride
She’s not afraid
Oh, Ileana!
Nothing can stop Ileana…
A skip and a hop in a graceful charade
Dodging the dark with a pas de bourree
She’s not afraid
Oh, Ileana!
Nothing can stop Ileana…
