Anchoress (7" Version)

Lyrics

The summer rain is what she loves And singing to the rhythm of the thunder above Prone to possession from the earliest age They put her upon this earth to live in a cage She watched the tears from the statue wall For this and eternity behind the walls Cut the ties and the null advice The world and everything she'll leave behind Sanctuary of a different kind She made her vow She made up her mind Heaven knows it ain't the right place to be all the time She started to believe again She heard the rain and the thunder above She's gonna find a new way to channel her love The pilgrims come to lick the sign They get their faces painted with a tribal design The seasons turn, she fashions the shrine Arranging all the apples in symmetrical lines The tunnel leads to an ancient mound And there we open up the ground together A boat is waiting by the river tonight A rogue, she wake up when she feels the sunlight In the language of her own kind She made a vow She made up her mind Heaven knows it ain't the right place to be all the time She started to believe again She heard the rain and the thunder above She's gonna find a new way to channel her love
