Sisters Of Mercy |
Oh the sisters of mercy, they are not departed or gone. |
They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can’t go on. |
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song. |
Oh I hope you run into them, you who’ve been travelling so long. |
Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control. |
It begins with your family, but soon it comes around to your soul. |
Well I’ve been where you’re hanging, I think I can see how you’re pinned: |
When you’re not feeling holy, your loneliness says that you’ve sinned. |
Well they lay down beside me, I made my confession to them. |
They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem. |
If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn |
They will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem. |
When I left they were sleeping, I hope you run into them soon. |
Don’t turn on the lights, you can read their address by the moon. |
And you won’t make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night: |
We weren’t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right, |
We weren’t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right. |
