The Gravedigger's Song
MARK LANEGAN · Blues Funeral 2012 · Track 05 of 13
With piranha teeth I've been dreaming of you And the taste of your love, so sweet Honest, it's true
Through my heart flows sleep And the dark, heavy rain Where the gravedigger's song is sung You've been torturing me
Tout est noir, mon amour Tout est blanc Je t'aime, mon amour Comme j'aime la nuit
Love, is the medicine good? Is the crow flying eight miles high Over wire and wood?
Shovel down six feet With a head heavy pain The magnolia blooms so sweet And it fades just the same
To the stars, my love To the sea To the wheels, my love 'Til they roll all over me
Oh love, I've been thinking of you With razor white teeth, so sharp Honest, it's true
In my blood flows sleep And the dark heavy rain The magnolia blooms so sweet Only torturing me
To the stars, my love To the sea To the wheels, my love 'Til they roll all over me
