Concrete Blonde - The Sky Is A Poisonous Garden lyrics

the fever you hold on this night

deathly cold

I can feel from this side of the door

I can feel Eleanor

He said, sun don't rise...

he said sun don't shine

he said don't bring tomorrow

to justify tonight

The moon is full-the stars are bright

and the sky is a poisonous garden

tonight.

Sip your Tequila. Give me some time

to unlearn all I've learned for the

spring to unwind

and then came your sweet mouth

I began to move mine.

They knew with the dawn-

they knew with the day

they knew what they had

would be young naked prey

and attacked from all sides

by a world filled with

poison and hate

Eleanor trembles. Eleanor moans.

Somehow, this body is someone

she always has known

she cries tears on his chest

O so silent and slow-

She said please don't go. Please don't go-

and she cried and she died in his arms

and he cried nevermore

the moon is full, the stars are bright

and the sky is a poisonous garden

tonight
