Seth Lakeman - Blood Red Sky lyrics

rate me

Staring at the dark with hungry eyes, <br />

Moonlight flickered in the shadows cried, <br />

Gold ring flashed and the howling stopped, <br />

I called her name and the west wind dropped.<br />

I called her name and the west wind dropped.<br />

<br />

I push her on the arm with the silver cane, <br />

Took her by the hand, I saw her pain, <br />

My breath smelt like a burning house, <br />

Bitter cold words apon my mouth.<br />

Bitter cold words apon my mouth.<br />

<br />

A tall dark figure is on the loose, <br />

With big sharp teeth to bite the truth, <br />

I steal your honour and tell you lies, <br />

Leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

I'll leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

<br />

Wake up late in the mid day sun, <br />

Reach for the shadow but I'll be gone, <br />

Through empty fields and storm blown trees, <br />

Praying to the night to set you free, <br />

You'll be praying to the night to set you free.<br />

<br />

A tall dark figure is on the loose, <br />

With big sharp teeth to bite the truth, <br />

I steal your honour and tell you lies, <br />

Leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

I'll leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

<br />

Leave you all alone<br />

Sky<br />

Blood red sky<br />

Blood red sky<br />

Blood red sky<br />

<br />

Stained glass windows, shadowed pains, <br />

Fairy tale stories and autumn rings<br />

Falling shadow and a cold embrace<br />

Cross your heart and you'll see my face<br />

Cross your heart and you'll see my face<br />

<br />

A tall dark figure is on the loose, <br />

With big sharp teeth to bite the truth, <br />

I steal your honour and tell you lies, <br />

Leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

<br />

A tall dark figure is on the loose, <br />

With big sharp teeth to bite the truth, <br />

I steal your honour and tell you lies, <br />

Leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

<br />

A tall dark figure is on the loose, <br />

With big sharp teeth to bite the truth, <br />

I steal your honour and tell you lies, <br />

Leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

I'll leave you all alone in the blood red sky<br />

I'll leave you all alone in the blood red sky</
