”The Bachelor and the Bride”
Melodie de: The Decemberists
[Verse 1]
There’s a wrinkle in the water
Where we laid our first daughter
And I think the wind blows so sweetly there
Over there
[Verse 2]
And the windows and the cinders
And the willows in the timbers
The infernal rattling of the rain
Still remains
[Chorus]
„But I” said the bachelor to the bride
„Am not waiting for tonight
No, I will box your ears
And leave you here stripped bare.”
[Verse 3]
Hear the corncrakes and the deer hooves
And the sleet rain on the slate roof
A medallion locked inside her hands
In her hands
[Verse 4]
And his fingers are they telling
Of the barren of her belly
And his callouses cure her furrowed brow
Even now
[Chorus]
„But I,” said the bachelor to the bride
„Am not waiting for tonight
No, I will box your ears
And leave you here stripped bare.”
[Chorus]
„But I,” said the bachelor to the bride
„Am not waiting for tonight
No, I will box your ears
And take your tears and leave you, leave you here
Stripped bare.”
