Cowboy Junkies - white sail текст песни

Raise a white sail if you love me

A black sail if you dont

Seal me up in an impregnable tower

Or surround me with an impassable moat

Ive heard all the stories told about love

(unattainable and pure)

But there is one love of which Im sure

Your fear as honed as a battle axe,

Ill bear my neck, Ill wear the scar,

And if my nerve should fail the task

I know your faith will not roam too far

Ive heard all the stories told about love

(two souls into one)

But this tale of love is one weve just begun

Isoldt had her tristan,

But love potions are not what we need,

And paris had his helen

But it was infatuation that was plain to see

What I desire is your trust to inspire

This love for you which grows in me

Plant a rose tree on his grave

And on mine plant a vine,

As seasons pass and markers fade

Watch them slowly intertwine

Ive heard all the stories told about love

(till death do us part)

But our love is a vow which has been wrought

From heart to heart
