Lyrics Damaris - Patrick Wolf

Damaris

Black rain
Floods the downs
Ferrets burrow
Moles make mounds
Round your bones
Deep underground
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
How I wait for you
Summer, Spring
Autumn, Winter
Here perishing
Gypsy, stray
Bleak orphan
No one could say
The land you came from
But deep in my arms
You belonged
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
How I wait for you
Summer, Spring
Autumn, Winter
Here perishing
My god damned
Damaris
Killed with last kiss
God damned
Damaris
I loved you
God damn these tears
And this religion
Thought I was more
Than just my father’s son
Who says in limbo
Be where you’ve gone
But nobody knows
Nobody knows
So here I wait for you
Summer, Spring
Autumn, Winter
Here perishing
(Wait for me)
My god damned
Damaris
Killed with last kiss
God damned
Damaris
I loved you
I loved you
And now I kiss
I kiss the earth
Oh rise up
Rise up
Rise up
Now
From the earth
And I smash my fist
Into the earth
Oh rise up
Rise up
Rise up
Now
From the earth
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
Rise up!
I loved you
Black rain
Floods the downs
The black rain
Black rain
