The Moon Asked the Crow Lyrics

Lyric discussion by museum 

Cover art for The Moon Asked the Crow lyrics by CocoRosie

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
