Nursey, Nursey

Lyrics

[Verse 1] All the skirts of the night are ruffled and torn Valentinos are painting your mirrors black In the eye of the glass, the wine makes you blind The nurse administers the final lash [Verse 2] From the cripple's cupboard, your lover doth creep Both his hands are tied to the lid of your bed From his oversized pocket, a newspaper hangs The nurse makes a list of all that's been said [Chorus] Oh, nursey nursey you cry so low Take me in and don't let me go But teach my lover patiently Oh, nursey nursеy please take mе [Verse 3] From the wide-open door, a picture of screams All the orchestra turns to look down the hall A painting crashes from the wall to the floor The nurse hums a tune as she hears you call [Chorus] Oh, nursey nursey you cry so low Take me in and don't let me go But teach my lover patiently Oh, nursey nursey please take me [Bridge] The violins echo in the cup of your ear And spill down your cheek as the nurse hovers near [Verse 4] Your lover like snow on the white marbled floor Kisses the doctor as he fills in a form While a youth dressed as winter stands next in the line The nurse with a smile makes sure that you're warm [Chorus] Oh, nursey nursey you cry so low Take me in and don't let me go But teach my lover patiently Oh, nursey nursey please take me [Chorus] Nursey nursey you cry so low Take me in and don't let me go But teach my lover patiently Oh, nursey nursey please take me [Chorus] Oh nursey nursey you cry so low Please take me in and don't let me go But teach my lover patiently Oh nursey nursey please take me
