Lyrics:
is in her coffin
And a-lying by the wall"
"Tear down, tear down, those milk white sheets
They are made of silk so fine
That I may kiss Lady
cigarette
I stay only to get by
The night was dark and the land was cold
I was frozen right to the bone
Just like fire would
I burn up
Just like fire
, hearts on fire
Burning, burning with desire
Burning for the steel
Hearts on fire
For years shunned by society
Outcasts, condemned for our beliefs
At least I'm happy knowing what love is all about
You'll always be a fire I can't put out
Embers to ashes, that's how it should be
You'd think by now my
to be held down
By the wings of history
Nevermore to be cast aside
This day is mine
Even through the darkest days
This fire burns, always
This
down the Nile
Plague darkness three days long, hail to fire
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be
I met my love by the gasworks wall
Dreamed a dream by the old canal
I kissed my girl by the factory wall
Dirty old town
Dirty old town
Clouds
I haven't fucked much with the past
But I've fucked plenty with the future
Over the skin of silk are scars
From the splinters of stations
Fell into the fire
Fell into the fire
I was led by the heart
Led by the heart
Drawn towards the heat
Drawn towards the heat
Too fierce
the flaw
I shift the blame
To the worm in the bottle
I shift the blame
To anyone standing before me
Silk skin paws
Hang by both feet
Embracing
flesh like silk, and your face like glass
Who could they get to carry you?
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man
Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill,
And we never was a minute late.
We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown,
Rollin' 'cross the Georgia state.
We
Fell into the fire
Fell into the fire
I was led by the heart
Led by the heart
Drawn towards the heat
Drawn towards the heat
Too fierce
I'll make that other cheek mine
And maybe the next guy
That don't wear a silk tie
He can walk by and say hi
Say hi, instead of why
Instead of why
sittin' by the fire's cozy glow
He don't care about the cold and the winds that blow
He just says, "let it snow, let it snow, let it snow" (let it snow)
Love is a burning flame
And it makes the fiery rain
Bound by one desire
I fell into a ring of fire
I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I fell
I'd do anything in my power
To see you just smile
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side
I'd do anything
Oh the rose and the linsey - oh
I'll dress you up in silk so fine
Down by the Greenwood side - oh
Oh mother dear when we were dying
Oh the rose
roll on by roll on by
Lemon scented parfum came in to the morning rain
To the morning rain
Silk and glass and holiness
Is why I call your name
why I call
I got split, in two
One island out to sea
Guess we’ve always kinda liked the view
Everything’s floating, gone by again
Another fading sun
Stuck in
Than asparagus out of season
No, my darling, this is the reason
Why you've got to be mine
You'd be so nice to come to
You'd be so nice by the fire
Than asparagus out of season
No, my darling, this is the reason
Why you've got to be mine
You'd be so nice to come to
You'd be so nice by the fire
Well, when you're sitting there
In your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folk that you know
Well, I hope you won't see me
In my
the street
As I passed by the other day
I was scared, my knees were weak
Forgot what I had come to say
Free the people from the fire
Pull the boat out
