Souverain

Though bells will ring

Church steeples were catchin fire

If you promise spring

Then I'll know you are a liar

Cause in the spring

Tender grasses won't burn easily

Tough thrushes sing

Still my lover won't return to me

Wild parsnips they still scald my lungs

While thistles will burn my feet

And if you join our chorus

You will never fear anymore

So here it comes the chorus

We will meet on a fatal shore

Souverian Souverian the elder

Souverian Souverian was free

Souverian Souverian we feld her

So very young so very young were we

Birds will sing

Still my lover won't return to me

You promise spring

Still my lover won't return to me

Wild parsnips scald my lungs

And thistles are burning my feet

So here it comes the chorus

You'll never fear anymore

If you join a chorus

We will meet on a fatal shore

Under the elders

The older get younger

The younger get over

Over their elders

Under the elders

Pretend that you're older now

Under the elders

The older get younger

The younger get over

Over the elders

Under the elders

Bending your branches down

We who are so very young

Still my lover won't return to me

Thrushes sing

Still my lover won't return to me

Wild parsnips they still scald my lungs

While thistles still burn my feet
