Isobel Campbell And Mark Lanegan - Raven lyrics

rate me

And in the dawning of the day in late september There came a weeping from outside my chamber door Weary from fever I rose up ?? A Raven with a broken wing yet nothing more I turn my head the once and bird become a damsel With lips of cherry, ivory skin and lustrous hair Open the doorway wide and smile for her to enter Not in my lifetime seen a beast so rare Sweet thighs of ruin how I loved her, and I loved her She muttered low and helped me to her infant breasts Deliverance was long and strong as god's my witness Babylon burning sorrow known with each caress And let the night in For you were broken Too ill to touch Too much And with the medal Eguinal had done their duty The morning glory lying awoke with duly low I breathed my last the day the warning bell was knelling She smoothed her feathers down and flew out my window And let the night in But you were broken Too ill to touch Too much And let the night in For you were broken Too ill to touch Too much And let the night in For you were broken Too ill to touch Too much
