Flogging Molly Drunken Lullabies May The Living Be Dead (in Our Wake) Said her name was Marie From the banks of the Lee With the prettiest eyes my own had ever seen Her hair like ripples They danced with the tide As our hearts washed away to the sea Was she sent down from the heavens above Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love Now the devil is courtin' a different tune And I laugh as the tears was the rain Tell me why no one`s listenin' Is there nothing at all left to say In a world so unforgiving You mean more to me each every day So may the living be dead in our wake One cold winters night behind the clouds stars did hide And the ghost of our souls thanking Christ we`re alive Our spirits they crackled with lovers first sight Till the mornin' came fresh with a new Will you dance with me now heavens child sang the clown We`ve nothing left to lose but your wings and my frown Where over the hills the valleys will ring To the sound of our love singin' true Tell me why no one`s listenin' Is there nothing at all left to say In a world so unforgiving You mean more to me each every day So may the living be dead in our wake But the summer sun is melting now With the leaves I`ll soon be gone Will you have the strength when the emptiness shadows fall Or will your aching heart be ripped apart By the beating from the storm Or will howling gales like yesterdays be gone Yeah be gone... be gone Was she sent down from the heavens above Her breath pure as whiskey my heart fell in love Now the devil is courtin' a different tune And I laugh as the tears was the rain Tell me why no one`s listenin' Is there nothing at all left to say In a world so unforgiving You mean more to me each every day So may the living be dead in our wake |
