The Mad Flight Evensong lyrics

My sweet, my sweet, what have you done?
I dreamed your dream, I shone the sun
And needn't need another one
But O, my sweet, what have you done?

Now our marriage celibate
How we made a hell of it
And all the day live-long
We sing our evensong
We sing… Ah… O…

I wanted you back
Inside these broken arms
To sing the song unsung
Until we come round again

Is there an airbag on your side?
May we our leavings synchronize?
I've hunted low, have hunted high
To keep not one of us alive


So torch the candles, kill the day
Lock a door and let's away
And if the night burns overlong
Sing our leaving song
Sing… Ah… O…

I'm lying in wait
Beneath your bridal bed
To climb inside your head
Until we come round again

But I'm blinding you, babe
With flowers and venom
To every other one
Until you come round again
O… Ah…
