The Devil's Own |
The night is dark and cold |
The strong winds and the rain |
Crack the branches upon my window |
The devils beats his drum |
Casting out his spell |
Dragging all his own down in hell |
The ticking of the clock |
Inexorably goes on The howling of the stray souls of heaven |
The treasures of the cove |
Where the traders stored their gold |
Echo voices still dead to the world |
Underneath the vine |
Shaded by the leaves |
I still hold you close to me Beneath the open stars |
Beneath the pillows and the sheets |
I still hold you dear to me The ticking of the clock |
Surely sunrise won’t be long |
When darkness hides inside it’s own shadow |
The devil beats his drum |
Casting out his name |
Dragging all his own down into shame |
