Lyrics Marianne Faithfull

Marianne Faithfull

Sparrows Will Sing

A child breaks the ice and peers into the hidden depths

I'm trying to decipher the horror of un-holiness

I have no doubt you'll figure it out someday

Calo, calo, cale

Then the sparrows will sing on the boulevards, again

And on the corridors of karma, where they walked on

Soft for a night

Me a sultan's embrace, but mythical peace will surely fade away

Calo, calo, cale

Calo, calo, cale

The young generation is eager to muster the helm

They cannot be seduced by this candy floss techno-hell

They put over the hell and the fresh breeze

They'll sustain

Calo, calo, cale

Calo, calo, cale

A child breaks the ice and peers into the hidden depths

To try to untangle the whole of this unholy mess

Well I have no doubt they will figure it out one day

Calo, calo, cale

Calo, calo, cale
