Iona Song

Lyrics

Iona, sweet Iona Island out of time Your lost child is returning His shadow close behind Anger in his breast Black dog in his mind I feel like an island of rage In a vast sea of peace Like a worm in a cathedral Like a beggar at a feast Columba heal my black heart! Let my nightmare cease Lace upon the window Patterns on the sheets Three ships in the distance Horsemen in the street Lord God fit me To be your hands and feet
