|
Runnin' around wearin' a gown |
|
My love hit the groun, and soon I caught up. |
|
Needles and pins, where have I been |
|
My heart says let me back in, |
|
but my chest wants to cave in |
|
Oh take please take |
|
oh take these words out of my mouth |
|
Mary Magdalene take this cross off my back now |
|
A ghost of a horse follows me to the end, |
|
oh the end of the barn |
|
where my faith's buried deep in the ground |
|
I lay into the piano |
|
with the pedal pushed down |
|
It rings and it pounds |
|
and my heart, oh it sweeps the ground |
|
Oh (violent) violin strings |
|
they break, oh break to the sound |
|
of horse bones that carried me, oh into this town |
|
Oh take please take |
|
Oh take me please away from this crowd |
|
And I will show you the beauty |
|
of silence and sound |
|
But where oh where is my deep barking hound? |
|
'Cause the beauty of my love is unfound. |
|
And where oh back in the silence now |
|
Oh I wave the boats away from me now |
|
And I saw the ash pour off the bow. |
|
But where have I been |
|
And what did I do? |
|
I let love in |
|
Now I'm left with my friend Old Blue |
|
But where have I been |
|
And what did I do? |
|
I let love in |
|
Now I'm left with my friend Old Blue. |
