The Sisters of Mercy

The Sisters of Mercy - Nine While Nine

And it's passing strange
And I'm waiting for the train
Caught up on this line again
And it's passing slowly
Killing time
But it's better than living in what will come
And I've still got some of your letters with me
And I Thought sometimes
Or I read too much
And I think you know
Let's drink to the dead lying under the water
And the cost of the blood on the driven snow
And the lipstick on my cigarettes
Frost upon the window pane
Nine while nine and I'm waiting
For the train.....

She said do you remember a time when angels
Do you remember a time when fear
In the days when I was stronger
In the days when you were here
She said when days had no beginning
While days had no end
When shadows grew no longer
I knew no other friend but you
Were wild
You were wild.....
