She said she woke up in the middle of a dream She thought she'd died when she heard somebody scream: "The groom is on His way!" But she didn't think today would be the day She was out of grace
She showed up late and started knocking on the door "Lord, let me in, Lord!" She should have known the score She wept and wailed as she heard a cold whisper in her ear: "It's judgement day"
As she stands there in the light This foolish virgin of the night praying now on judgement day She never had too much faith and it's so sad Now it's too late to start praying on judgement day
She dreamed of hiding in a safe and secret place Touch the silver mirror Disappear without a trace but on this stormy Sunday she realizes there's a price to pay on judgement day
As she stands there in the light This foolish virgin of the night praying still on judgement day and all the winds blow her away She knew Jesus was the way but she thought it was a fairy-tale Now it's too late to pray on judgement day
A song about a lady that lived an immoral, selfish life in wealth and luxury. Now she is being judged for the way she lived her sinful life. She never had much faith and didn't believe God's Word written in the Bible. She wants to escape judgement only to realize that there is a price to pay and it's too late to repent. Based on the parable of the ten virgins (Matthew 25).
