Smiths - Suffer Little Children lyrics
rate meOver the moor, take me to the moor <br />
Dig a shallow grave <br />
And I'll lay me down <br />
<br />
Over the moor, take me to the moor <br />
Dig a shallow grave <br />
And I'll lay me down <br />
<br />
<br />
Lesley-Anne, with your pretty white beads <br />
Oh John, you'll never be a man <br />
And you'll never see your home again <br />
Oh Manchester, so much to answer for <br />
<br />
<br />
Edward, see those alluring lights ? <br />
Tonight will be your very last night <br />
<br />
<br />
A woman said : "I know my son is dead <br />
I'll never rest my hands on his sacred head"<br />
<br />
<br />
Hindley wakes and Hindley says : <br />
Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, and says : <br />
"Oh, wherever he has gone, I have gone"<br />
<br />
<br />
But fresh lilaced moorland fields <br />
Cannot hide the stolid stench of death <br />
Fresh lilaced moorland fields <br />
Cannot hide the stolid stench of death <br />
<br />
<br />
Hindley wakes and says : <br />
Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, Hindley wakes, and says : <br />
"Oh, whatever he has done, I have done"<br />
<br />
<br />
But this is no easy ride <br />
For a child cries : <br />
<br />
<br />
"Oh, find me ... find me, nothing more <br />
We are on a sullen misty moor <br />
We may be dead and we may be gone <br />
But we will be, we will be, we will be, right by your side <br />
Until the day you die <br />
This is no easy ride <br />
We will haunt you when you laugh <br />
Yes, you could say we're a team <br />
You might sleep <br />
You might sleep <br />
You might sleep <br />
BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM ! <br />
Oh, you might sleep <br />
BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM ! <br />
You might sleep <br />
BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM !" <br />
<br />
Oh Manchester, so much to answer for <br />
Oh Manchester, so much to answer for <br />
<br />
Oh, find me, find me ! <br />
Find me ! <br />
I'll haunt you when you laugh <br />
Oh, I'll haunt you when you laugh <br />
You might sleep <br />
BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM ! <br />
Oh ... <br />
Over the moors, I'm on the moor <br />
Oh, over the moor <br />
Oh, the child is on the moor
