Shining Mountain, my eyes! Spindrift flying in gusts Slow your pulse Slow your pulse Tall dreams before first light Drift off to snow capped highs Slow your pulse Slow your pulse Slow, my eyes Slow, my eyes

Are you, are you Coming to the tree They strung up a man They say murdered three. Strange things did happen here No stranger would it be We met at midnight In the hanging tree. Are you, are you Coming to the tree Where dead man called out For his love to flee. Strange things did happen here No stranger would it be We met at midnight In the hanging tree. Are you, are you Coming to the tree Where I told you to run, So we'd both be free. Strange things did happen here No stranger would it be We met at midnight In the hanging tree. Are you, are you Coming to the tree Wear a necklace of rope, Side by side with me. Strange things did happen here No stranger would it be We met at midnight In the hanging tree.

Now, you be the mother, and I'll be your fool I'll hide myself deep inside Your crimson pool The muddy water runs Beneath your folds You won't let me breathe You won't let me go Now, you be the stranger, and I'll be the white-skinned son You'll blacken my innocence With sugar and opium The children were suffocating Down in your damp cave And you were the mother, and I was the sleeping slave Protect me from violence Hold me in your cool lips You drug me with kindness So I can pretend I exist Now, you be the only child I'll suck on your breast You'll feed me with gasoline I'll burn my name in your head Ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah, ah Ah-ah-ah

We'll fall down On broken knees And we'll cry for you now We'll cry for your mercy We believe in love We believe in love God, save us now We believe in love We degrade ourselves But we dig our own grave Jesus Christ, the Lord Save us now We believe in love We believe in love God, save us now We believe in love You said all of my life Would be in vain If I gave up on anything I knew to be true Or a provable lie So I open the door And there, there they lie Twisted and misshapen They suffer for love And they're sick to death Of the dreams they used to have And they're sick to death Of their beautiful lie God, save us now God, save us, please We believe in love We believe in love God, save us now We believe in love
