Okkervil River - Blackest Coat lyrics

rate me

Wrap your blackest coat around your throat tonight.

There's a brand-new tune around the moon tonight.

And your mother's standing in the cellar, you didn't tell her,

and your father's standing by the water without his daughter.

Because there is something near that you can hear tonight.

Feel a brand-new storm surround your form tonight,

as the dress you wore is falling to the ground.

Take the brightest scream out of your dream tonight.

There's a brand-new sweet forbidden treat tonight.

As your mother's standing in the cellar, you didn't tell her,

as your father's standing by the water without his daughter.

Wrap your blackest coat around your throat tonight.

There's a brand new tune around the moon tonight.

There's some brand-new proof that you're aloof tonight,

and there's a brand-new song for you to sing, sing along tonight.
