Patrick Wolf - Damaris

Lyrics

black rain
floods the downs
ferrets burrow
moles make mound
'round your bones
deep underground
but nobody knows
nobody knows
how I wait for you
Summer, Spring
Autumn, Winter here
perishing

gypsy, stray
bleak orphan
no one could say
the land you came from
but deep in my arms
you belonged
but nobody knows
nobody knows
how I wait for you
Summer, Spring
Autumn, Winter here
perishing

my goddamned Damaris
killed with last kiss
goddamned Damaris
I loved you
goddamned Damaris
killed with last kiss
goddamned Damaris
I loved you, I loved you

goddamn these tears
and this religion
thought I was more
than just my father's son
who says in limbo
be where you've gone
but nobody knows
nobody knows
here I wait for you
Summer, Spring
Autumn, Winter here
perishing

(wait for me)

my goddamned Damaris
killed with last kiss
goddamned Damaris
I loved you
goddamned Damaris
killed with last kiss
goddamned Damaris
I loved you, I loved you

I loved you

and now I kiss I kiss the earth

oh rise up, rise up, rise up now
from the earth

and I smash my fist into the earth

oh rise up, rise up, rise up
now
from the earth

(rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up
rise up, rise up, rise up, rise up)

black rain floods the downs
the black rain, black rain
black rain floods the downs
the black rain, black rain
