歌词

[00:16.69] She came from dakota
[00:21.83] Though some say she hailed from the south
[00:27.56] He tried to believe but each time she would leave
[00:31.63] With the venom that dripped from her mouth
[00:37.10] Like some angel of old
[00:39.17] Bent on saving the soul
[00:41.47] Drugged to the knees he would pray
[00:45.09] To some rude russian icon
[00:47.26] That twined like a python
[00:49.21] And blinded the sun night and day
[00:53.12] He'd say
[00:55.25] Please bring me peace
[01:02.03] You say you'll stay
[01:04.43] Just to leave me whole
[01:07.85] All of my soul your passion play
[01:18.53] Though she lies to amuse
[01:20.62] She lies to confuse
[01:22.51] Passion with vision and pain
[01:26.32] He lies for possession and time
[01:29.17] Though there's no time to gain
[01:34.14] Squandering feeling
[01:36.19] Constantly stealing away
[01:38.52] From the sound of her name
[01:41.84] Is like thunder and lightning
[01:43.90] Hiding the sound of the rain
[01:47.63] And he'd say
[01:49.80] Please bring me peace you say you'll stay
[01:58.92] Just to leave me whole all of my soul your passion play
[02:24.22] So he searches for truth
[02:26.33] In the beauty that once was her name
[02:31.49] Senselessly trusting in time to remind her
[02:35.45] Blind she came
[02:39.03] Suddenly rootless
[02:40.98] Fashionably useless
[02:42.98] Magically fruitless and time
[02:46.49] Like some sunday scholar
[02:48.63] Who lives off the squalor
[02:50.55] Of yesterday's knowledge and fame
[02:54.22] And he'd say
[02:56.49] Please bring me peace you say you'll stay
[03:05.51] Just to leave me whole
[03:08.87] All of my soul your passion play
[03:19.50] Well some overdose
[03:21.22] And some wrap like a rose
[03:23.16] 'Round the slick perfumed nose
[03:25.08] Of high noon
[03:27.31] Burning their lips
[03:29.05] As they stoop low to kiss
[03:30.97] Some rich man's excuse for the moon
[03:36.57] I must have been lucky
[03:38.83] Got--out with my body intact
[03:41.41] And tomorrow in tune
[03:44.52] But it's this sense of time
[03:46.72] That wraps like a vine
[03:48.39] 'Round the neck of the sun and the moon
[03:52.27] He'd say
[03:54.26] Please bring me peace you say you'll stay
[04:03.30] Just to leave me whole
[04:06.94] All of my soul your passion play
