Sisters of Mercy

Intro : Oh ! Sisters of Mercy they are not departed or gone        They were waiting for me when I thought that I just cant go on        And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me their song       Oh ! I hope you run into them you who've been traveling so long                         Yes, you who must leave everything that you cannot control It begins with your family but soon it comes round to your soul Well I've been where you're hanging I think I can see how you're pinned When you're not feeling holy your loneliness says that you're sinned Well, they lay down beside me I made my confession to them They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn They will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem When I left they were sleeping I hope you run into them soon Dont turn on the lights you can read their address by the moon And you won't make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be alright We weren't lovers like that and besides it would still be alright
