She Sings the Mourning

歌詞

Down to the glen where the roses twine Lie in the grass watch the time go by The hum drum mid-afternoon sun Only his mothers only son Black Jack tarmac dirt dust trap Sister certain wrapped in rags Whispers words of unwished schemes Steals a smile from the scorpions dream She sings the mourning She sings the mourning She sings the mourning In the quiet night She said don't worry She said don't worry She said don't worry We're out of sight She sings the mourning In the quiet night Blood red love not temptress eyes Cuts right through the family ties Lighthouse lights the locust nest Salem's site invites incest Back to the glen where the roses twine Treacle tarts and turpentine Patron saint of guillotines A secret's safe when no-one sees She sings the mourning She sings the mourning She sings the mourning In the quiet night She said don't worry She said don't worry She said don't worry We're out of sight She sings the mourning In the quiet night (x2)
