The Water Sprite

from Malaise by Lilou & John

lyrics

I’ve had my heart broken twice
I’ve had my soul split in two
Down by the black river bank
Down where the full moon was new

I met my love in the grass
I met my love in the rain
The leaves of willows hanged low
The leaves that knew my name

He walked his way cross the field
He walked his way cross the moon
The grass was black and free
The grass was dying soon

And his heart was still pounding and warm
When I tore it from his flesh
His eyes were still calling out please have forgiveness

I met my love in the grass
I met my love in the rain
And every whisper was true
And every word was my name

He left my hand lying cold
He left my hand and I knew
There was a field and a moon
But not a whisper was true

And his heart was still pounding and warm
When I tore it from his flesh
His eyes were still calling out please have forgiveness

Who could have the moon and grass that grew high in the field
Who could know the moon walked cross the field

I’ve had my heart broken twice
I’ve had my soul split in two
Down by the black river bank
Down where the full moon was new
