CURSED SLEEP EP 1) Cursed sleep Backing Vocals: Dawn McCarthy

I slept sweetly unpretending That the night was always ending She breathed lightly right next to me And I dreamed of her inside of me And in my dream she sang so sweetly A melody I hope to sing So enslaved by her sweet wonder It cut my legs and fingered hunger She sang my name and so engulfed I cried and felt my legs fail In her arms I trembled electric Oh and she let me and she held me Then waking she was older still And holds my love against its will In spell cast with her palms extended Cursed love is never ending Cursed eyes are never closing Cursed arm are never closing Cursed children never rising And cursed me never despising Oh I am loving always holding While she sleeps her song enfolding Epic song it tells of how She and I are living now Cursed love Cursed love Cursed love 2) Black Dissimulation / No Such As What I Want -------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thanks -a. to transcribe the lyrics. Comments can be send to me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------Black Dissimulation (in parentheses are lines where the live version on the Boxhead Ensemble disc di ffers) sweet ill health has hidden from me,

events about which one has no memory. whether it is to protect or deny one is not told and one asks not why. the noise near the trees gathers into a block. one drinks just to where one is able to talk. tries to confuse things that surely occurred, (tries to accuse things that real ly weren't there) by stretching and acting like one hasn't heard. (by shrugging and acting like o ne doesn't care) blank indiscretion and testing of lines at the end of a farm there to kick it. to find a young dog, swollen and bald (to find a dead dog swollen and bald) and to giggle and poke it and stick it. to or to to sit in the drive and pull a head down, to push in the way of an oncoming blow. take wine on holidays when no-one's in town dislike someone and let them so know.

let it burn out this morning at home. (well, I let it burn out this morning at home) the stove and the kitchen; the howl and the steam. and lay on the couch sometimes resting alone in order to utter a decorative scream discussed and disgust, and a pretense of light. persistent denial, waylaid in the night. ignoring the stupid and hating the silence disliking the prurient, disdaining the violence. denying the rice and accepting the drink. however it comes at the start of a fall. take it whenever you get it; you think you're unlucky ever to get it all. you're rude to the relatives; cold to the friends unpleasant to god when he comes by the house one tries to look cross (?) as the storm it begins and goes to the inlet to see things out -------------------------------------------------------------------------------No Such As What I Want what if it didn't come back this is how the hard one takes it. puts her arms around his neck, and squeezes gently as if to break it. she's gonna miss everything about it, but what's best in her is the bottom has stopped. then again what's worse get's better to messing with what, substantial, dropped. crazy woman misleads by staring blankly at the wall above you. never in a hundred times will she try to pretend

to love you all week always you or she must convert or hide time from one to the other and into another at the ? ground ? her coldness commands anything further. there's a black cloud having made it go so. so you hooked (?) her on the arm. ripped her shoulders and split her back and push her quietly forward. ? stuff ? your thumb in it, you, so scream and groan and I'll scream too -------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bonnie Prince Billy New Song B iblue lotus feet j BLUE LOTUS FEET engrossed is the bee of my mind on the blue lotus feet of my divine mother my divine mother my divine mother

Door Open Will Just

of my heart wide I keep for thee thou come ? Will thou come ? for once, come to me

Will my days fly away Without seeing thee, my lord ? Night and day, night and day I look for thee night and day ---------------A minor place

I've been to a minor place And I can say I like it's face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in a minor place Well I put the shoes in line Separate the women mine As we do what we do fine So victorious, so benign I've been to a minor place

And I can say I like it's face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in a minor place Only take the weather warm And the job that does me harm The scars of last year's storm Rest like maggots on my arm I've been to a minor place And I can say I like it's face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in a minor place Thank you man if for the thought That all my loving can be bought Was wisely in your gullet caught Before my loyalty you sought I've been to a minor place And I can say I like it's face If I am gone and with no trace I will be in a minor place O it's not a desert nor a web Nor a tomb where I lay dead Minor in a sound alone Yes a clear commanding tone Singing from my little point And aching in my every joint I thank the world it will anoint me If I show it how I hold it Nomadic revery (all around)

Today was one where, lost in thought I really feel I am Losing not an ounce of what You see in me, my lamb If you're not with me tomorrow That would be the worst I'm glad I dream of what I dream of Today a thing was burst O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around My brain it And living, To make our And not let beams, it's here at all I must work lives here justified trouble lurk

Instead of seeing monkeys biting I lay on the ground While my hectic travelling partner Wandered all around O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around O all around a left buttock And all around a right All around your every curve I'm going to go tonight But only hold me, hold me All the city's on me And all they wish to scold me And lay their hands upon me So only hold me, hold me And I'll return't you baby I just need an evening With someone nice to hide me O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around O all around O all around It's kept together moving all around I see a darkness

Merci Pierre de la traduction des paroles de cette chanson

Well you're my friend (It's what you told me) And can you see (What's inside of me) Many times We've been out drinking And many times We've shared our thoughts But did you ever, ever notice

The kind of thoughts I got Well you know I have a love A love for everyone I know And you know I have a drive To live I won't let go But can you see it's opposition Comes a-rising up sometimes That it's dreadful and position Comes blacking in my mind And that I see a darkness And that I see a darkness And that I see a darkness And that I see a darkness And did you know how much I love you Is a hope that somehow you you Can save me from this darkness Well I hope that someday, buddy We have peace in our lives Together or apart Alone or with our wives That we can stop our whoring And pull the smiles inside And light it up forever And never go to sleep My best unbeaten brother This isn't all I see O no I see a darkness O no I see a darkness O no I see a darkness O no I see a darkness And did you know how much I love you Is a hope that somehow you you Can save me from this darkness Another day full of dread

I like to have a good time Any of my friends will tell you So if you confront me with stupidity I'm doubly angry at you And I say : nip ! nap ! it's all a trap Bo ! bis ! and so was this Whoa ! whoa ! to haiti go And watch it all come down Ding ! dong ! a silly song Sure do say something's wrong Smile awhile, forget the bile And watch it all come down So I become more lively To bury all of the ugly Whole persons sometimes Must be them bodies buried

And I say : nip ! nap ! it's all a trap Bo ! bis ! and so was this Whoa ! whoa ! to haiti go And watch it all come down Ding ! dong ! a silly song Sure do say something's wrong Smile awhile, forget the bile And watch it all come down And I toe the water And an urchin poke me An' I must be godfather To anyone who'll have me Today was another day full of dread But I never said I was afraid Dread and fear should not be confused By dread I'm inspired, by fear I'm amused And I say : nip ! nap ! it's all a trap Bo ! bis ! and so was this Whoa ! whoa ! to haiti go And watch it all come down Ding ! dong ! a silly song Sure do say something's wrong Smile awhile, forget the bile And watch it all come down Death to everyone

I am here Right here Where god puts None asunder And you In black dress and black shoe You do Invite me under Go on Go there You can See me aging Stars turn Balls burn Coming kids Are raging Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun

La la la ... Every terrible thing Is a relief Even months on end Buried in grief Are easy light times Which have to end With the coming Of your death friend Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun La la la ... So strap me on And raise me high Cause buddy I'm not Afraid to die But life is long And it's tremendous And we're glad That you're here with us And since we know An end will come It makes our living Fun Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun Death to me And death to you Tell me what else can we Do die do Death to all And death to each Our own god-bottle S'within reach Death to everyone Is gonna come And it makes hosing Much more fun

Fire burned and blew out flowers Showing me its comely powers Still and all it would be hours Before I would get burned Someone mawed and put my cock in Corner-eyed I saw it lock it Twisters rolled but no-one walked in And only love was learned Now I truly love No-one else coud And the world so For ye and me it Madeleine-Mary you wholly e'er have stole me far below me turned

Sing a song of Madeleine-Mary A tune that all can carry Burly says if we don't sing Then we won't have anything All the boys on ship set sail And the mate was Madeleine-Mary When her eyes did fill with tears It was extraordinary It was extraordinary For we none of us could see it For she kept herself kept below And all her feelings private Sing a song of Madeleine-Mary A tune that all can carry Burly says if we don't sing Then we won't have anything None of us could get a glimpse But all of us did want it At night above our sleeping heads Our sleeping dreams were haunted So now my kids you'd like to hear Of one who reached and got her Well if there was well I think He sleeps beneath the water Sing a song of Madeleine-Mary A tune that all can carry Burly says if we don't sing Then we won't have anything

Song for the new breed

Ecrite par Dianne Bellino Merci l'Arrangeur Masqu de la traduction des paroles de cette chanson

Your little feet Your sharp teeth The way the light hits your eyes Your scrappy fur Your fists The light from the lord That shines inside Inside of me Inside of me Something is growing Something is glowing Someone is showing Sing a song for the new breed Inside of me Your deep growl Your high whine The uneven way that you move Your pure heart Your love The lord made you to prove something Inside of me Inside of me Something is growing Something is glowing Someone is showing Sing a song for the new breed I could be right Then you'd be right too Today I was an evil one

Tonight my eyes were hurting much As I had strained them all day long I don't remember waking up My memory is not that strong The day was spent walking about And asking questions blindly And silently and not without A sense of lapsing dignity Today I was an evil one Who suffered dumbly having fun Tomorrow god will make me good

If I allow her to, she would I was found again in need And mostly unprotected As I had spent good time with greed And giving was rejected Today I was an evil one Who suffered dumbly having fun Tomorrow god will make me good If I allow her to, she would The skin of all my fingers split Painfully receding My hands were dry and itched and hurt And also they were bleeding I can fix it by withdrawing Claim from false completeness And by humboly allowing God to grant me sweetness Raining in darling

Darling I can stay awake all night But I would make mistakes alright And the body asks so much Sweet thing I give you what I reach Taken what I had to teach And re-rendered it with such With such With such O it don't rain anymore I go outdoors Where it's fun to be And I know you love me I know you do ------------GET ON JOLLY 2 / 15

When you ask me to sing it feels my heart would burst with pride And I look at your face and tears come to my eyes

All that's harsh and wrong in my life melts into one sweet song And my love spreads wings like a glad bird flying over the road I know you take pleasure in my singing I know that only when I sing do you hear me Cuz then I touch things I can't touch I touch parts of you I really can't touch Drunk with the joy of singing I forget myself and call you my friend I'm here to sing you songs In your room I have a corner seat In your world I have no work to do My life can only break out in songs that have no purpose

2. When thou commandest me to sing it seems that my heart would break with pride ; and I look to thy face, and tears come to my eyes. All that is harsh and dissonant in my life melts into one sweet harmony and m y adoration spreads wings like a glad bird on its flight across the sea. I know thou takest pleasure in my singing. I know that only as a singer I com e before thy presence. I touch by the edge of the far-spreading wing of my song thy feet which I cou ld never aspire to reach. Drunk with the joy of singing I forget myself and call thee friend who art my Lord. 15. I am here to sing thee songs. In this hall of thine I have a corner seat. In thy world I have no work to do ; my useless life can only break out in tun es without a purpose. (...)

In the night of tiredness Trusting you and trusting Let me be prepared by not Trusting you and trusting

let me fall asleep without fighting me too fighting what I can't fight me too

That I want you and only you Let my heart say this over and over All other desires that distract me Day and night are false and empty to the core

You'll help me close my eyes at night And things will all be good and finer in the morning From dawn to dusk I sit The time will come when And all my dark desires Will become part of the here before my door and I know that all of a sudden I'll see you I denied or I gave into thing I give to you

25. In the night of weariness let me give myself up to sleep without struggle, re sting my trust upon thee. Let me not force my flagging spirit into a poor preparation for thy worship. It is thou who drawest the veil of night upon the tired eyes of the day to re new its sight in a fresher gladness of awakening. 38. That I want thee, only thee let my heart repeat without end. All desires that distract me, day and night, are false and empty to the core. (...) 44. (...) From dawn till dusk I sit here before my door, and I know that of a sudden th e happy moment will arrive when I shall see. (...) 81

On many an idle day I've grieved over lost time Moaned and groaned and rolled my bones but there is no lost time ! You've taken every moment of mine and put it into yours Hidden in the heart of things you make seeds into sprouts Hidden in the heart of things you make buds into flowers And hidden in the heart of things you make flowers into edible things I was tired and sleeping on my idle bed one night And I imagined all the work had ended for the night But in the morning I woke up and found my house was bright What majestic treats do you still have in store for me ?

A breath of death, a day of rest and o make me wealthy And in the arms of your old charms Let me forever bask Is that too much to ask ?

81. On many an idle day have I grieved over lost time. But it is never lost, my L ord. Thou hast taken every moment of my life in thine own hands. Hidden in the heart of things thou art nourishing seeds into sprouts, buds in to blossoms, and ripening flowers into fruitfulness. I was tired and sleeping on my idle bed and imagined all work had ceased. In the morning I woke up and found my garden full with wonders of flowers.

(I've found a new way of living, I've found a joy of my own) Your friend is at the door He has crossed the unknown sea and brought your call to my home The night is dark and my heart is full. But I'll turn on the light, open the gat e and bow to him my welcome It's your friend who stands at the door I'll worship him with folded hands and tears I'll worship him placing at his feet the treasures of my life He'll go back with his job done, leaving a dark shadow on my morning And in my lonely home only my lonely self will remain as if it were and offering to you

86. Death, thy servant, is at my door. He has crossed the unknown sea and brought thy call to my home. The night is dark and my heart is fearful yet I will take up the lamp, open m y gates and bow to him my welcome. It is thy messenger who stands at my door. I will worship him with folded hands and with tears. I will worship him placi ng at his feet the treasure of my heart.

On the slope of the creek, I asked her Where are you going hiding your flashlight with your coat ? My house is all dark and lonesome, lend me that light ! She raised her dark eyes for a moment and looked at my face through the dusk I have come to the creek, she said, to shine my flashlight on the animals in the water when it gets dark It got darker, and I asked again if she would bring her light to my house As there were no animals in the water. There was nothing living moving She said, I'm going to shine it on the sky ; eventually it will reach a star I watched her shine the light uselessly into the sky In the moonless gloom of midnight I asked her why she still held the light close to her chest My house is all dark and lonesome, I said. Lend me your light I need it to walk home with, she said. I can't see in the dark like a cat I watched her light get lost among the trees and into the lights of houses

64. On the slope of the desolate river among tall grasses I asked her, "Maiden, w here do you go shading your lamp with your mantle ? My house is all dark and lon esome lend me your light !" She raised her dark eyes for a moment and looked at my face through the dusk. "I have come to the river," she said, "to float my lam p on the stream when the daylight wanes in the west." I stood alone among tall g rasses and watched the timid flame of her lamp uselessly drifting in the tide. In the silence of gathering night I asked her, "Maiden, your lights are all l it then where do you go with your lamp ? My house is all dark and lonesome lend me your light." She raised her dark eyes on my face and stood for a moment doubt ful. "I have come," she said at last, "to dedicate my lamp to the sky." I stood and watched her light uselessly burning in the void. In the moonless gloom of midnight I ask her, "Maiden, what is your quest, hol ding the lamp near your heart ? My house is all dark and lonesome lend me your l ight." She stopped for a minute and thought and gazed at my face in the dark. "I have brought my light," she said, "to join the carnival of lamps." I stood and watched her little lamp uselessly lost among lights. 64. Sur la berge du fleuve dsol, parmi les hautes herbes, je lui demandai : "Fille, o vas-tu ainsi, protgeant sous ton manteau la flamme de ta lampe ? Ma maison est obscure et dserte ; prte-moi ta lumire." Un instant elle leva sur moi ses yeux somb res et me dvisagea dans le crpuscule. "Je suis venue vers le fleuve, m'a-t-elle di t, pour confier ma lampe au courant, quand la dernire lueur du couchant s'teindra. " Et je restai seul parmi les hautes herbes, contemplant cette faible flamme inu tile qui s'enfuyait la drive.

Dans le silence de l'ombre accrue, je lui demandai : "Fille, toutes vos lampe s sont allumes dis-moi donc o tu vas avec la tienne ? Ma maison est obscure et dser te prte-moi ta lumire." Elle leva sur moi ses yeux sombres et resta hsitante un ins tant. "Je suis venue, dit-elle enfin, pour ddier ma lampe au ciel." Et je restai l, contemplant cette flamme inutile se consumer dans le dsert. Dans les tnbres d'un minuit sans lune je lui demandai : "Fille, que cherches-tu donc, en tenant ainsi ta lampe contre ton coeur ? Ma maison est obscure et dsert e prte-moi ta lumire." Un instant elle s'arrta et, pensivement, me dvisagea dans le noir. "J'ai apport cette lumire, dit-elle, pour me mler au carnaval des lampes." Et je restai l contempler la petite lampe perdue parmi les feux.

(I found a joy of my own) She who had always remained in the depth of my being In the twilight of gleams and glimpses She who had never smiled or given it up in the morning Will be my last gift for you, folded into the last song Words have wooed but never won her Persuasion has reached to her but come up empty I have gone from country to country keeping her in the core of my heart And around her have risen and fallen the growth and decay of my life Over my thoughts and actions, my slumbers and dreams, she ruled yet dwelled alon e and apart Nobody ever saw her face to face And she stayed alone in her whatever you want to call it Waiting for you to see her

66. She who ever had remained in the depth of my being, in the twilight of gleams and of glimpses ; she who never opened her veils in the morning light, will be my last gift to thee, my God, folded in my final song. Words have wooed yet failed to win her ; persuasion has stretched to her its eager arms in vain. I have roamed from country to country keeping her in the core of my heart, an d around her have risen and fallen the growth and decay of my life. Over my thoughts and actions, my slumbers and dreams, she reigned yet dwelled alone and apart. Many a man knocked at my door and asked for her and turned away in despair. There was none in the world who ever saw her face to face, and she remained i n her loneliness waiting for thy recognition. -------------------

Say I found a piece of rock And put it in my pocket And for the day that we are wed I put it in a locket Which is to hang around your neck As long as you see fit Well, tell me, o my love Do you think that you would wear it ? And on the day that threatens That the earth might open up The birds have stopped their singing And the insects have shut up And all that's left between us Is some al-homdillillilie Oh would you split it with me, baby So that I wouldn't die ? And after all these things

Is a question I must ask When everyone has called me out And said I am the worst And asked for voices on my side My love, would you sing first ? Would you say, "He's okay, He's better than the rest ; He's innocent in god's eyes And in mine, he is the best !" ? Hard life

And I've got my problems Sometimes love don't solve them And I end each day In a song And it's a hard life For a man with no wife Lord, it's a hard life God makes you live But without it Baby, don't doubt it You don't even have Your tears to give I know I'm a hard man To live with sometimes Maybe it ain't in me To make you a happy wife of mine Maybe you'll kill me Honey I don't blame you If I was in your place Maybe that's what I would do

When the numbers get so high

Of the dead flying through the sky O, I don't know why Love comes to me Love comes to me When your mouth is laying ope Head knocked back you don't cope You're out of rings and flowers and soap Love comes to me Love comes to me Love comes to me Love comes and all It's my hands, my heart, my lips And that is all When the fever hits on your forehead And trusive mice chew up your bed And you call on God and God is dead Love comes to you Love comes to you O, sugar won't you be my only I'm a hard-hearted honey-pot hungry shepherd And I'm longing to be born for you, that's her Love comes to you Love comes and all It's your hands, your heart, your lip And that is all In the night time when you feel me And the backs of your knees conceal me And your eyeballs unreal me Love comes to me Love comes to me Strange form of life

A strange form of life kicking through windows, rolling on yards Hitting in loved ones, triggering odds A strange one And a hard way to come into a cabin, into the weather Into a path walking together A hard one And the softest lips ever, twenty-five years of waiting to kiss them Smiling and waiting to bend down and kiss twice The softest lips And a dark little room across the nation, you found myself racing Forgetting the strange and the hard and the soft kiss In the dark room And a strange form of life kicking through windows, rolling on yards Hitting in loved ones, triggering odds

A strange one Wai

The lameness of an unborn child The tidiness of cry The only way I'm leaving here Is curling up and die The way our shelter moves above Controlled by just my hand Insures the death you're dreaming of The drowning down of man O love, o love, o careless love I only want to lay with you My love, my love, my carefull love I've found the hard way love is true And always love the smiling one And rounding out will come With bitter bile and heartless fun And consciousness made numb And fearful hate that's steming out >From fear and only fear Has made your inner croco shout And bring his victims here O love, o love, o careless love I only want to lay with you My love, my love, my carefull love I've found the hard way love is true A creature born in listlesness His hatred to become It's here his love is swollen in And consciousness made numb And relegate your youth and trust Your table and your skin And share the love the godly must And hold it til the end O love, o love, o careless love I only want to lay with you My love, my love, my carefull love I've found the hard way love is true I only want to lay with you My love, my love, my carefull love I've found the hard way love is true Cursed sleep

I slept sweetly unpretending That the night was always ending She breathed lightly right next to me And I dreamed of her inside of me And in my dream she sang so sweetly A melody I hope to sing So enslaved by her sweet wonder It cut my legs and fingered hunger She sang my name and so engulfed I cried and felt my legs fail In her arms I trembled electric Oh and she let me and she held me Then waking she was older still And holds my love against its will In spell cast with her palms extended Cursed love is never ending Cursed eyes are never closing Cursed arm are never closing Cursed children never rising And cursed me never despising Oh I am loving always holding While she sleeps her song enfolding Epic song it tells of how She and I are living now Cursed love Cursed love Cursed love

No bad news

Trouble, more trouble can you get anymore Slow bubble boiling on the bedroom floor Lonely ain't lonely, someone calling at the door Someone lovely and she's bringing bad news She clenches and she cries and she lays on the stairs Pounding on the earth and yanking at her hairs And showing such fear at being found unawares To be here and be bringing bad news Well, something bad happens and a lot of people go Bad themselves, that's how awful it is Turning half the heart into something hard and dark And she had to bring here this Well, she's told, Hold your buttons and look at the sky Someone will fix things if you let your face dry Keep your face near the earth and your heart beat high And you may transcend the bad news

Well, something bad happens and a lot of people go Bad themselves, that's how awful it is Turning half the heart into something hard and dark And she had to bring here this For For For And She She And I all hammers and nails all leaves and winds all love ambitions enemies and friends shakes her face so fiercely that all her features go lays like a monkey unclothed in the snow her voice it decays and before it does she goes, will never again deliver bad news

Something bad happens and a lot of people go Bad themselves, that's how awful it is Turning half the heart into something hard and dark And she had to bring here this Mm, hey little bird hey little bird Thank you for not letting go of me when I let go of you Hey little bird hey little bird Thank you for not letting go of me when I let go of you (Hey little bird hey little bird) Thank you for not (letting go of me when I let go of you) Cold & wet

Water may stop warmth, this do not forget When things become too warm make them a little wet And douse them with a mouthful, put the baby down Clean the earth surrounding and cause the warm to drown And introduce to every soul a drink made of tears Hear them bicker, watch them die impaled on balsa spears And looking in the morning the streets are flooded out The men are wailing toothless, the ladies ghostly pout And they shout : Our shoes are wet, our skin is cold And we no longer fear the voices of the brave or bold Making what is to come clear Well, future is diminished by what today we did We wetted warmth and killed it and in the water hid We wetted warmth and killed it and in the water hid Big friday

You saved me from melting, baby You saved me from stinging and being holed up And braking in snow and killing more

And overspilling my runneth cup You You You And had light in your hands and your eyes closed had movement out of my sight wore no shoes and ate like a leopard slept with your legs apart every night

And if I had to live This is what it should be To have such a woman with me When tidal wave hit and our house was in splinters I thought you had took all you had to take But you snuggled to me on the ground in the winter And your breath smelled like honey in the frosty air wake And if I had to live This is what it should be To have such a woman with me Lay and love

From what I've seen, you're magnificent You fight evil with all you do Your every act is spectacular It makes me lay here and love you From what I hear, you are generous You make sunshine and glory too When you walk in things go luminous It makes me lay here and love you From what I know, you're terrified You have mistrust running through you Your smile is hiding something hurtful It makes me lay here and love you It makes me lay here and love you I'm filled with violet and red and blue I've got a feeling from what I do That you might lay there and love me too The seedling

I go out back to look up at her Smiling unluckily at my red fur And into my own I meld my nose My full-sized child is fully unclothed Birdies say I got no children, birdies never know In my hidden life I've made a seedling grow When it is cold I shelter her in The wazimy warmth of the monkey skin

And into my own I fold my head My full-sized child with full-sized spread Birdies say I got no children, birdies never know In my hidden life I've made a seedling grow Hawks and dowes and Black hand gripping Lanterns and arrows They grant my every power fists our kid's wrists and little monk fish child wish

And birdies say I got no children, birdies never know In my hidden life I've made a seedling grow Birdies say I got no children, birdies never know In my hidden life I've made a seedling grow (Birdies say I got no children, birdies never know) (In my hidden life I've made a seedling grow) (Birdies say I got no children, birdies never know) (In my hidden life I've made a seedling grow) Then the letting go

Les paroles entre parenthses sont crites et chantes par Dawn McCarthy There was someone a long time ago (Come follow me here and then we'll go) Who played with me whenever it snowed (To a fortress in the snow) She lived nearby and I'd walk her home (On these bushes berries grow) Then I would go to my own house alone Then one december bad weather came on (We will eat them seeds and all) I went to our shared place and nobody came (Hand in my hand, nose and nose) And it was dark before I made my way home (Shall we marry or shall we go) And sat at my window and watched the snow come When I had children I asked them to stay When the weather turned bad indoors to play I tried to make games and be a bold friend Though strong was the call of the harsh winter wind They ran out of doors and shouted and sang (They won't find us from the road) Their voices went soft as they ran further on (Thicker branches tangled so) Till only a trace of their singing did hang (Flashlights fading, the fire low) On my eyes and my whiskers where they didn't belong Then my, someone from childhood came into the room And lay her wet head on my withering feet Her tears wet my lap and she fell asleep soon

Saying nothing to me just going to sleep O how my head burned as I sat unprepared (Come marry me here and then we'll go) I was rendered blind and of the world unaware (To the places in the snow) In the quiet of the day, well, I laid her low (You a fire, me aglow) And used her skin as my skin to go out in the snow God's small song

I will wake up tomorrow I have tended to God's small song And to Love's small song And closed my eyes to sleep so long And tonight I'll go Into all of the places that you love That is my place here To have been in those I will wake up tomorrow I have amended some of the things That some actions bring And closed the head to be with you In each eye there is an apple Buried there before the eye And out of sockets come the branches And from the branches dangle I I called you back

And I called you back to a place beside me And I called you back to a place beside me Love found us easily And if that's all we have you will find we need nothing more And I called you back to a place beside me And I called you back to a place beside me And everytime we kiss We find ourselves in love again And the older that we get We know that nothing else for us is possible And I called you back to a place beside me And I called you back to a place beside me Mm, when I was quiet Well, I heard your voice in everything

And I called you back to a place beside me And I called you back to a place beside me And I called you back to a place beside me Ebb tide

First the tide rushes in Plants a kiss on the shore Then goes out to sea And the sea is very still once more So I Like With Will rush to your side the oncoming tide one burning thought : your arms open wide ?

At last we're face to face And as we kiss through an embrace I can tell, I can feel you are loved You are really, really mine In the rain, in the dark, in the sun Like the tide at its ebb I'm at peace in the web Of your heart's arms Of your arms -------------------The brave... His hands

There were a lot of things in his touch Sometimes the slightest whisper could hurt so much I could feel him coming nearer his little noises and such And then my man would lay his hands on me He might touch me the way a man should sometimes Bring me to passions that only he could Answer some earthly need whenever he would When my man would lay his hands on me

All the kindness and protection The tenderness and the care And he was happy goodness me But then when he was scared Those hands they took on a life undead They were vicious and they were small But big enough to keep this woman's back Against the wall Lord I didn't ask for it Not the love or anything else Not the years spent in the world Of a man that only loved himself I didn't ask for it But God it is mine now Those hands are in my mind and soul But Lord it's you and me That make their power And I will pity that beautiful man And Lord I will bless his path We were both just wounded children In a love that thank God didn't last There's a lot of things in Lord your touch Sometimes your slightest whisper moves me so much Your grace and your forgiveness the whole world and such When you You lay your hands On me Yes when you Lord rest your gentle hands On me On me Il y avait beaucoup de choses dans son toucher Parfois le moindre chuchotement pouvait faire tant de mal Je le sentais s'approcher, ses petits bruits et autres Et puis mon homme posait ses mains sur moi Il pouvait me toucher comme un homme le devrait parfois Me transporter jusqu' la passion comme lui seul tait capable Rpondre volontiers un besoin terrestre Quand mon homme posait ses mains sur moi Toute cette gentillesse et protection Toute cette tendresse et cette attention Ah, il tait heureux, bon Dieu Mais quand il avait peur Ces mains se transformaient en choses monstrueuses Elles taient brutales, mesquines et petites Mais assez grandes pour forcer la femme que je suis rester toujours Le dos au mur Seigneur, je n'ai pas demand tout a Ni l'amour ni rien d'autre Ni les annes passes dans le monde D'un homme qui n'aimait que lui-mme Je n'ai pas demand tout a Mais Dieu, tout a fait partie de moi maintenant

Ces mains sont dans mon esprit et mon me Mais Seigneur, c'est Toi et moi Qui leur donnons leur pouvoir Mais j'aurai piti de ce bel homme Et Seigneur, je bnirai son chemin On n'tait tous les deux que des enfants blesss Dans une relation qui, Dieu merci, ne dura pas Il y a beaucoup de choses dans Ton toucher, Seigneur Parfois le moindre de tes chuchotements m'meut tant Ta grce et ton pardon pour le monde entier et tout a Lorsque Tu Tu poses Tes mains Sur moi Oui, quand Toi, Seigneur, reposes Tes douces mains Sur moi Sur moi Calvary cross
