Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
The night it rests like a hammer blow And breaks the morning it brings The mad men are down on the crypt floor Sleeping through their favors and sins I trained myself to be hardened And greet the bird like the day I soared to greet lusty gambling's And drenched myself in the dusk where they lay I exchanged the dark for the darkness And hung the belt from the wing So the traitors may part with their malice But I'll remember everything I stood up and danced round the heckles And planted the leaf from the book I admit I love my romances The blackbird, the wren, the rook The church house won't harbor the coffins But the docks they whittle their ships To the pleasure the feast And the memory and the soar of kissing her lips I gave up myself to the dawning Of the morning bird in first flight I thought I ran the road of the pauper I lost it all in the night I lost it all in the night
