0:15I saw love she was kestrel backed
0:19Big on theory short on fact
0:23When she sang her voice cracked
0:26Ah ha ha
0:31There in her beauty with her eyes blacked
0:35Body braced for impact
0:39I followed where the tears tracked
0:42Ah ha ha
0:47Ah ha ha
0:51Where walls stood witness derelict
0:56To petrol rage and Kristallnacht
0:59Bright windows all broken house ransacked
1:03Ah ha ha
1:07Ah ha ha
1:11Ah ha ha
1:17That held the knife that cut the cord
1:20Wrapped cosy in the lies we bought
1:24Crowed loud as if anointed by her sword
1:33While she aloof seemed lost in thought
1:37Then turned upon us tiger clawed
1:42Leapt the fences hope she don't get caught
1:50Then entered in that stood before
1:54The threshold of her open door
1:58Rats inside the grain store
2:01Ah ha ha
2:05Ah ha ha
2:23She found me leaning circumspect
2:26Bent my eyes toward the prospect
2:32And she said
2:35My fate is in the hands of a total stranger
2:39Whose only map is a blank sheet of paper
2:47Now my fate is in the hands of a total stranger
2:52Whose only map is a blank sheet of paper
2:59Now my fate is in the hands of a total stranger
3:04Whose only map is a blank sheet of paper
3:17I saw love she was kestrel backed
3:21One part theory one part fact
3:25When she sang her voice cracked
3:28Ah ha ha
3:32Ah ha ha
3:33Followed where the tears tracked
I saw love she was kestrel backed Big on theory short on fact When she sang her voice cracked Ah ha ha There in her beauty with her eyes blacked Body braced for impact I followed where the tears tracked Ah ha ha Ah ha ha Where walls stood witness derelict To petrol rage and Kristallnacht Bright windows all broken house ransacked Ah ha ha Ah ha ha Ah ha ha That held the knife that cut the cord Wrapped cosy in the lies we bought Crowed loud as if anointed by her sword While she aloof seemed lost in thought Then turned upon us tiger clawed Leapt the fences hope she don't get caught Then entered in that stood before The threshold of her open door Rats inside the grain store Ah ha ha Ah ha ha She found me leaning circumspect Bent my eyes toward the prospect And she said My fate is in the hands of a total stranger Whose only map is a blank sheet of paper Now my fate is in the hands of a total stranger Whose only map is a blank sheet of paper Now my fate is in the hands of a total stranger Whose only map is a blank sheet of paper I saw love she was kestrel backed One part theory one part fact When she sang her voice cracked Ah ha ha Ah ha ha Followed where the tears tracked
