Folk Song — текст песни (David Gray)

I have waited the night over

For some word to come

I asked the moon oer the clover

But the moon she is dumb



You have made me a promise

At midnight wed go

And that we should be married

Sailing westward ho



Such words you have spoken

You have told me a lie

That it could not be broken

When you knew it must die



Theres no light in heaven

My eye can see

That my heart be imprisoned

While the devil go free

Go free



Like honey the ocean

In the morning breeze

Ill take my tears to the water

That the rivers may freeze



Theres no light in heaven

Can shine for me

That my heart be imprisoned

While the devil go free

Go free



What folly is beauty

What trick of the skin

Desire its fancy

And ruin its whim

Your child within me

And what can I do

My blood fill with needles

That he look like you



Theres no light in heaven

My eye can see

That my heart be imprisoned

While the devil go free

My heart be imprisoned

While the devil go free

No light in heaven

No light for me
