Lyrics
Blood on the river and a hole in the sky
A tattered picture of you washed in the light
Hush my baby everything's fine
It's getting dark tonight
It's getting dark tonight
I don't want your love
We ain't got much time
I just want like everyone else
To get and keep what's mine
To get and keep what's mine
Blood on the river and a hole in the sky
The endless echo of the look in your eyes
Hush my darling everything's fine
It's getting dark tonight
Inside my bones tonight
