Lyrics The Sisters of Mercy

The Sisters of Mercy

Driven Like the Snow

Still night, nothing for miles,

White curtain come down,

Kill the lights in the middle of the road

And take a look, take a look around.....

It don't help to be one of the chosen

One of the few, to be sure

When the wheels are spinning around

And the ground is frozen through, and you're

Driven, like the snow

Pure in heart

Driven together

And given

Away to the west

A white dress

'til the river don't run

A black dress

Looking like mine

'til the sun don't shine no more

Where the sky meet the ground

Where the street fold round

Where the voice you hold don't

make no sound, look

Snow on the river and two by two

Took a lot to live a lot like you, I don't

Go there now, but I hear they sung

Their Fuck Me And Marry Me Young

Some wild idea and a big white bed, now

You know better than that, I said,

Like a voice in the wind blow little crystal down

Like brittle things will break before they turn

Like lipstick on my cigarette

And the ice get harder overhead

Like think it twice but never never learn...

And the mist will wrap around us

And the crystal, if you touch it...

And the cars

Lost in the drift

Are there

And the people that drive

Lost in the drift

Are there

And the cares I've

Lost in the drift

Are there

Theirs, ours,

Lost in the drift

Are

Are

Are

Are

Are..

Driven

Driven together

And driven

Apart
