Turn To Stone Lyrics
High above
The sickle moon
All senseless thought
Slips and drowns
A place, a time
Gone out of mind
Reaction swims
The opal tide
Ferry me down, leave well alone
Ferry me down, turn to stone
Here within
My phantom flesh
Welcome in
The glowing guest
Far inside
The absolute
Instinct leaves
Us standing mute
Ferry me down, leave well alone
Ferry me down, turn to stone
Heaven sent
Some dark marvel
Fool's gold
As cold as marble
High above
The sickle moon
Your hidden dreams
Chill and swoon
A place, a time
Gone out of sight
Pulse the blood
Statue of light
Ferry me down, leave well alone
Ferry me down, turn to stone
The sickle moon
All senseless thought
Slips and drowns
A place, a time
Gone out of mind
Reaction swims
The opal tide
Ferry me down, leave well alone
Ferry me down, turn to stone
My phantom flesh
Welcome in
The glowing guest
Far inside
The absolute
Instinct leaves
Us standing mute
Ferry me down, turn to stone
Some dark marvel
Fool's gold
As cold as marble
The sickle moon
Your hidden dreams
Chill and swoon
A place, a time
Gone out of sight
Pulse the blood
Statue of light
Ferry me down, turn to stone

I was prompted to seek out the meaning of this particular song because of the bridge where she sang: "Heaven sent a dark marvel - fools gold as cold as marble." I was like what? I am riddling this...feel free to contribute.
i really would like to know more about the lyrics of the Banshees
No idea what the song is about, but it deserves to have a comment because it is great. I really like the imagary and a lot of Peepshow; I don't know why people write off the latter half of the Banshees career. Peepshow was their last great album, and the others were patchy but had some strong classics of their own.
