Marianne Faithfull - Ashes in My Hand текст песни

It took a long time coming

That big over the shoulder statement

But when it came it flowed easy as poison

Taken in extreme despair

Taken in extreme despair

Taken in extreme despair

Taken in extreme despair.

Remember to write often

In case you have something to tell me,

But please dont mention the unexpected guest

Staring into empty eyes

Staring into empty eyes

Staring into empty eyes

Staring into empty eyes.

A long lost confidence and pride

Come ringing back, come ringing back

To have the shadow back again

And happiness that feels like pain.

Then you left us

To see if you could find it

And when you came back it flowed easy as poison

It flowed easy as poison

Taken in extreme despair

Taken in extreme despair

Taken in extreme despair

Taken in extreme despair.

A long lost confidence and pride

Come ringing back, come ringing back

To have the shadow back again

And happiness that feels like pain

And happiness that feels like pain

And happiness that feels like pain.

Happiness that feels like pain.

Happiness that feels like pain.
