Brokedown Palace movie - Wind lyrics

Song by PJ Harvey<br /><br>

Catherine liked high places<br>

High up on the hills<br>

A place for making noises<br>

Noises like the whales<br>

Here she built a chapel with<br>

Her image on the wall<br>

A place where she could rest and<br>

A place where she could wash<br>

And listen to the wind blow<br>

<br>

<br>

She dreamt of children's voices<br>

And torture on the wheel<br>

Patron-Saint of nothing<br>

A woman of the hills<br>

She once was a lady<br>

Of pleasure, and high-born<br>

A lady of the city<br>

But now she sits and moans<br>

And listens to the wind blow<br>

<br>

<br>

I see her in her chapel<br>

High up on a hill<br>

She must be so lonely<br>

Oh Mother, can't we give<br>

A husband to our Catherine?<br>

A handsome one, a dear<br>

A rich one for the lady<br>

Someone to listen with<br>

<br>
