lyrics

LYRICS:

She Rose

She rose out of me, yes she rose.
Yes, she rose out of the sea, yes she rose.
She divided the sea like Moses,
and she took the words right out of me
and she spoke them.

She wrote me a letter, won't you read it?
Yes she wrote me a letter, there's a seed in it.
Yes she planted a seed and it grows when I read
and I won't get to sleep 'til I reap it.

And we both felt fate dealt an uneasy hand of cards,
and we both had ways to cheat the dealer,
and with both our hands on heavy hearts
we went our way,
but we knew we'd meet again in Winter.

All hands on deck.

And we watched our wives waiting daily for the rain,
and we watched our patient neighbours pining,
and we heard her wailing from the back
three times a week,
and we knew her helpless husband drowning.
Behold the ghost of her,

The ghost of Mary!

And I found myself wading in up to my knees,
I went searching for the blackened pearl,
and the harbour arbours all her bones and all her sins
and the tide brings flotsam in the morning.

The ghost of Mary!
