| Would you leave me alone, my sweet Simone
|
| If I lay on my back down below on the track?
|
| Remember the night, how I’d wade in the water
|
| Be counting the stars and starting me over
|
| They shine, your eyes
|
| Gonna make me rain, gonna make you rise
|
| When I’m gone, baby, don’t you forget it
|
| I did all I did just to get through to Heaven
|
| Got no mother, she can’t find me
|
| Got no father, he gonna blind me
|
| Little girls might twitch at the way I itch
|
| But when I burn it’s a son of a bitch
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| Hold on, all misery gone
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| Hold on, all misery gone
|
| Make me, shake me, bleed all over
|
| Going down to the ground in deep black water
|
| Let’s ride suicide
|
| Say what you want, but you make it don’t lie
|
| Don’t lay me down, baby, on a bed of hard thistle
|
| Gonna die when I drown just to have it away
|
| Those lies in my eyes
|
| Push you down in the river till you testify
|
| My mother, she don’t know me
|
| And my father, he can’t own me
|
| Little girls might twitch at the way I itch
|
| But the way I burn is a son of a bitch
|
| Make me, shake me, deep black water
|
| Gonna run through my pain, gonna make it rain
|
| Baby I’m gone, so don’t you forget it
|
| I did all I did just to get through to Heaven
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| Hold on, all misery gone
|
| Hold on, hold on
|
| Hold on, all misery gone
|
| If you could hear me love
|
| I’d tell to you my story
|
| To you and only you
|
| So love that you might save me
|
| I woke up from a dream
|
| I woke up, I was crying
|
| I saw an animal
|
| With eyes like mine on fire
|
| I saw my own true love
|
| She was a sullen flower
|
| Was she forget-me-nots
|
| White lilies or red roses?
|
| And then from far away
|
| Who’s that I see come riding
|
| Upon a pale white horse
|
| Come riding fast as lightning
|
| Oh, if you can hear me love
|
| I’d tell you my story
|
| So that you might save me
|
| So that you might save me
|
| So that you might save me
|
| So that you might save me |
