Concrete Blonde - Sky Is A Poisonous Garden Lyrics

The stars above shine down below

The fever you hold on this night deathly cold

He can feel from his side of the door

He can feel Eleanor



He said, sun don't rise, he said sun don't shine

He said don't bring tomorrow to justify tonight



The moon is full and the stars are bright

And the sky is a poisonous garden tonight



Sip your tequila, give me some time

To unlearn all I've learned for the spring to unwind

And then came your sweet gentle mouth

I began to move mine



They knew with the dawn, they knew with the day

They knew what they had would be young naked prey

And attacked from all sides

By a world full of poison and hate



Out of this world, out of this time

Out of control, they were out of their minds



The moon is full and the stars are bright

And the sky is a poisonous garden tonight



Eleanor trembles, Eleanor moans

Somehow, this body is someone she always has known

She cries tears on his chest

Oh so silent and slow



She said "Please don't go", she said, "Please don't go"

And she sighed and she died in his arms and he cried nevermore



The moon is full, the stars are bright

And the sky is a poisonous garden tonight

The sky is a poisonous garden tonight

The sky is a poisonous garden tonight

The sky is a poisonous garden tonight
