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
|
