The Moon Asked the Crow

I caught a glimpse out the window A Polish graveyard filled with widows I coddle a bottle of warm beer I see a pool of liquid tears Glimmering so sweet and mellow A sea of lilting wilting willow A secret book of forgotten wishes Drown in ponds with broken dishes

The moon asked the crow For a little show In the hazy milk of twilight No one had to know

Angel brother, I miss your hair Careless nature, gentle stare You fell like rain in the dark abysses Kissed the lips of bloody twins Assaulted by a slew of sirens Tricky mermaids, evil pirates

You watched the sky with kaleidoscopic eyes Howling out right to the blasphemous night A wolf in the garden, why do you linger so? Like a silky snail soul

The moon asked the crow For a little show In the hazy milk of twilight No one had to know

so melodic, love it

cool here's what i heard:

i see THEM LILTING, WILTING willow I SEEK A BOOK of forgotten wishes

in the hazy milk of twilight, NO ONE HAD TO KNOW

SUNG TO by a slew of sirens

you WATCH the sky with KALEIDOSCOPIC EYES

I love the Bloody Twins reference they made.

I can't believe there is only 3 comments! i absolutely love this song, the music is just mindblowing

cocorosie is amazing.

well, I don't know, but I hear a lot! a lot of references to Zelda twilight princess game O_O'

I love this song :)

The problem today is that people only download music so they can't check the liner notes on the album. Well, I did. User "museum" had it almost right -- but failed to actually correct the lyrics.

The liner notes say "twinsis", not "twins" and "twinsis" is what she sings too.

The liner notes say "sung to you a slew of sirens", but she clearly sings "sung to by a slew of sirens".

Interestingly the lyrics for the chorus is not given in the liner notes.
