Can The Circle Be Unbroken — текст песни (Kristin Hersh)

(one, two)



I was standing

By the window

On a dark and cloudy day

When I saw the

Hearse come rolling

For to take my mother away



Can the circle be unbroken

By and by, lord, by and by

Theres a better home awaiting

In the sky, lord, in the sky



Lord, I told the

Undertaker,

undertaker,

Please drive slow

For the body you are taking

Lord, I hate to see her go



Can the circle be unbroken

By and by, lord, by and by

Theres a better home awaiting

In the sky, lord, in the sky



I followed

Close behind her

Tried to hold up and be brave

But I could not

Hide my sorrow

When they laid her in the grave



Can the circle be unbroken

By and by, lord, by and by

Theres a better home awaiting

In the sky, lord, in the sky



Can the circle be unbroken

By and by, lord, by and by

Theres a better home awaiting...
