Sisters Of Mercy - Flood I Lyrics
And her hallwayMovesLike the oceanMovesAt the head of the riverAt the source of the seaSitting here now in this bar for hoursTrying to write it downFitting in hard with harder to comeTrying to fight itDown the river theres a ship will carry youDown river down streamDown the river theres a ship will carry theDreamDream of the floodDown the river theres a ship will carry theDream of the floodAnd her hallway...As the water come rushing overAs the water come rushing inAs the water come rushing overFlood...flood...Push the glass, stain the glassPush the writer to the wallIt may come but it will passSome say we will fallDream of the flood...Flood...And her hallway...Oh, maybe, in terms of surrender,On a backcloth of lashes and eyesIn a flood of your tears, in sackclothAnd ashes and ashes and ashes and ashesAnd ashes and ashes and lies...And her hallway...Like...As the water come rushing inAs the water come rushing overSitting here now in this bar for hoursWhile these strange men rent strange flowersIll be picking up your petals in another few hoursIn the metal and blood, in the scent and mascaraOn a backcloth of lashes and starsIn a flood of your tears, in sackclothAnd ashes and ashes and secondhand passionAnd stolen guitarsAnd her hallway...As the water come rushing in(like the sea)As the water come rushing over(dream of the flood)In a flood of your tears, in sackclothAnd ashes and ashesAnd ashes and ashesAnd ashes and ashesAnd ashes and ashes and lies...As the water come rushing in, rushing inAt the head of the riverAt the source of the seaAnd her hallway...Like...Flood...
