Children of Stone

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Marianne Faithful] Alchemical chemical devotions of the night Bring endless labyrinths of vines to light Your silent spell won't bring you home tonight You couldn't open up your face to light [Chorus: Marianne Faithful and Rufus Wainwright] All that blossoms all that blooms lies fallow in the night Waits for golden sunlight All that blossoms all that blooms lies fallow in the night Waits for golden sunlight [Verse 2: Marianne Faithful and Rufus Wainwright] Alchemical (alchemical) devotions of the night (Of the night) Desanguinate (desnguinate) limbs veined with valleys of light (Valleys of light) Children of stone your crystal cages alike Crown of creation bring me into the light (Into light) [Chorus: Marianne Faithful and Rufus Wainwright] All that blossoms all that blooms lies fallow in the night Waits for golden sunlight All that blossoms all that blooms lies fallow in the night Waits for golden sunlight [Verse 3: Marianne Faithful & Rufus Wainwright] Alchemical devotions of the night Desanguinate limbs veined with valleys of light Children of stone your crystal cages alike Crown of creation bring me into the light [Chorus: Marianne Faithful and Rufus Wainwright] All that blossoms all that blooms lies fallow in the night Waits for golden sunlight All that blossoms all that blooms lies fallow in the night Waits for golden sunlight
