[00:00.30]All the Sisters of Mercy, they are not departed or gone
[00:09.14]
[00:11.96]They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can’t go on
[00:19.99]
[00:22.80]And they brought me their comfort then later they brought me this song
[00:32.59]Oh, I hope you run into them, you, who’ve been travelling so long
[00:41.07]
[00:55.96]Yes, you who must leave everything that you cannot control
[01:04.05]
[01:06.58]It begins with your family but soon it comes around to your soul
[01:16.07]Well, I’ve been where you’re hanging, I think I’m can see how you’re pinned
[01:24.40]
[01:26.52]When you’re not feeling holy your loneliness says that you’ve sinned
[01:34.82]
[01:49.12]Well, they lay down beside me, I made my confession to them
[01:57.30]
[02:00.17]They touched both my eyes, I touched the dew on their hem
[02:09.46]If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
[02:17.82]
[02:20.14]They will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem
[02:28.14]
[02:42.66]When I left they were sleeping I hope you run into them soon
[02:52.81]Don’t turn on the lights, you can read their address by the moon
[03:00.33]
[03:02.96]And you won’t make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night
[03:12.78]We weren’t lovers like that and besides, it would still be alright
[03:21.11]
[03:23.56]We weren’t lovers like that and besides, it would still be alright
