Lyrics

The Sinking Belle (Black Sheep)

Passing by

Rows and rows

In silence I

Stand alone

And out of you

Grey birds fly

On a gravel path

You qualified

We tended to

The feverfew

The walls of vine

In hollow time

The shape I'm in

Oh, she knows so well

My hearts become

Her sinking belle

This sinking belle

Oh, this sinking belle

Are you worried now?

You're worried now?

Ahhh

This sinking belle

Oh, this sinking belle

You're worried now

You're worried now

Ahhh

We're smaller than

We used to be

What came from you

Is now inside me

Don't ask me why

Oh, don't ask me why

All my life

All my life

Was in black and white

This sinking belle

Oh, this sinking belle

I'm worried now

You're worried now

Ahhh

This sinking belle

This sinking belle

I'm worried now

You're worried now

Ohhh

This sinking belle

Oh, this sinking belle

You're worried now

You're worried now

Ohhh
