Song Lyrics

I'm lying in my bed, the blanket is warm
This body will never be safe from harm
I still feel your hair, black ribbons of coal
Touch my skin to keep me whole

Well if only you'd come back to me, if you laid at my side
Wouldn't need no mojo pin to keep me satisfied

Don't wanna weep for you, don't wanna know
I'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
The memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
Black beauty I love you so

Yeah precious, precious silver and gold and pearls in oyster's flesh
Drop down we two to serve and pray to love
Yes, born again from the rhythm, screaming down from Heaven
Ageless, ageless and I'm there in your arms

Don't wanna weep for you, don't wanna know babe
I'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
The memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
Black beauty I love you so, oh oh oh

Oh the welts of your scorn, my love, give me more
Send whips of opinion down my back, give me more
Well it's you I've waited my life to see, it's you I've waited my life to see
It's you, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you, you, you
You I've waited my life to see, it's you I've saved so hard for

Don't wanna weep for you, don't wanna know
I'm blind and tortured, the white horses flow
The memories fire, the rhythms fall slow
Black beauty I love you so, yeah
Blind for you lady, it's yes

Jeff Buckley, Gary Lucas
