Lyrics for Kingdoms Of Rain
Are those halos in your hair or diamonds shining there? Without a hope, without a prayer This rain beats down like death You turn your eyes to better men Before I go, I'm hanging in a cross on a nail I hung one for you in there Mmm Girl, lay your shame to rest Hope lies close to your breast You stoop to feed the crows Some scraps of truth already cold Before I go, I'm hanging in a cross on a nail I hung one for you in there In every kingdom of rain comes pouring down 'Cause I loved you so long Mmm 'Cause I loved you so long Would you put halos in your hair? Without a hope, without a prayer With lies close to your breast You finally lay your shame to rest Before I go, I'm hanging a cross on a nail I hung one for you in there In every kingdom of rain comes fallin' down 'Cause I loved you so long Mmm 'Cause I loved you so long 'Cause I loved you so long Ooh, ooh
