The Hazards of Love 4 (The Drowned)
guitar chords lyrics
William:
Margaret, array the rocks around the hole
Before we’re sinking
A million stones, a million bones
A million holes within the chinking
And painting rings around your eyes, these peppered holes
So filled with crying
A whisper-weight upon the tattered down
Where you and I were lying
So tell me now, o tell me this
A forest’s son, a river’s daughter
A willow wand, a will-o-wisp
Our ghosts will wander all of the water
William & Margaret:
So let’s be married here today
Our ghosts will wander all of the water
William & Margaret:
So let’s be married here today
These rushing waves to bear our witness
And we will lie like river stones
Rolling only where it takes us
But I pulled you and I called you here
(Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I)
And I caught you and I brought you here
(Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I)
But these hazards of love
Never more will trouble us
William:
O Margaret the lapping waves
Are licking quietly at our ankles
Another bow, another breath
This brilliant chill has come for to shackle
William & Margaret:
But with this long last rush of air
Let's speak our vows in starry whisper
And when the waves came crashing down
He closed his eyes and softly kissed her
Singing: but I pulled you and I called you here
(Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I)
And I caught you and I brought you here
(Didn't I, didn't I, didn't I)
But these hazards of love
Never more will trouble us
And these hazards of love
Never more will trouble us
