[00:15.460]Oh the sisters of mercy [00:17.130]They are not departed or gone [00:20.580] [00:23.180]They were waiting for me [00:25.110]When I thought that [00:26.420]I just can't go on [00:28.930] [00:31.060]And they brought me their comfort [00:32.970]And later they brought me this song [00:36.190] [00:39.050]Oh I hope you run into them [00:41.150]You who've been travelling so long [00:44.130] [00:47.100]Yes you who must leave everything [00:49.540]That you cannot control [00:51.820] [00:54.850]It begins with your family [00:57.100]But soon it comes around to your soul [00:59.860] [01:02.740]Well I've been where you're hanging [01:05.160]I think I can see how you're pinned [01:08.220] [01:10.750]When you're not feeling holy [01:12.560]Your loneliness says [01:14.480]That you've sinned [01:15.660] [01:17.840]Well they lay down beside me [01:20.750]I made my confession to them [01:23.750] [01:26.530]They touched both my eyes [01:28.830]And I touched the dew on their hem [01:31.780] [01:34.510]If your life is a leaf [01:36.460]That the seasons tear off and condemn [01:39.750] [01:42.400]They will bind you with love [01:44.270]That is graceful and green as a stem [01:47.530] [02:26.570]When I left they were sleeping [02:28.340]I hope you run into them soon [02:31.560] [02:34.310]Don't turn on the lights [02:35.940]You can read their address by the moon [02:39.280] [02:41.940]And you won't make me jealous [02:44.110]If I hear that they sweetened your night [02:46.950] [02:49.940]We weren't lovers like that [02:51.590]And besides it would still be all right
