augustine - Patrick Wolf

[00:26.16]As the belltower blocks the sunlight
[00:31.29]All the seeds in our garden fight
[00:35.48]To break and blossom all to be adored
[00:41.91]And look your skirt is torn
[00:44.04]And there's blood on my sheets
[00:48.16]Here comes a lowman of the law
[00:53.91]Fist tight, banging on the door
[00:57.60]And knocking me down on it's weight
[01:11.17]And I let him in
[01:14.73]As I pass out into a dream
[01:16.29]Whooping cranes and woodland beigns
[01:20.23]Great white wings beating
[01:24.85]In an attic, in a house, in the dead of night
[01:33.36]Singing, oh! My Augustine, Augustine!
[01:43.29]Oh! Is this forever, ever? Oh, oh
[01:56.36]Sweet Augustine, Augustine
[02:01.23]What does this mean for us?
[02:13.86]Does it mean that I can never change my ways
[02:19.61]And that's why, love, you shouldn't stay
[02:23.55]Still you will and love me
[02:27.98]Like a mother, or a maid bringing you down, down
[02:33.48]Down on your brazen knees
[02:37.99]Watering the worms and ****s
[02:41.73]Thinking, why does love leave me so damn cold
[02:48.61]And I'm getting old
[02:50.61]And is this what it should be
[02:53.05]Well... Is it?
[02:55.48]Oh! My Augustine, Augustine!
[03:04.42]Oh! Is this forever, ever? Oh, oh
[03:17.74]Sweet Augustine, Augustine
[03:22.74]Do we kill this one tonight?
[03:49.49]And now come the tears, heavy and hot
[03:54.61]It becomes clear, this is all we got
[03:58.55]As I hold you to my bed
[04:03.18]Like a cancer or a curse
[04:07.37]Be my loving nurse
[04:09.87]As we fall back into the impossible dream
