Black Velvet Cloak

She wandered oh so restlessly

Over bone rivers, resting under trees

Like an arrow flung from her bow

Her travels took her high and low

And she did it all in a black velvet cloak

She did it all in a black velvet cloak

Through all your crocodile tears with a lump in her throat

She hid it all away in her black velvet cloak

Oh, hidden one, where do you go?

Invisible pit in the shadows

The poison barb, the aching sting

The darkness touches everything

Now creatures leave their burrows

The birds begin to sing again

Treading light, avoiding haste

Standing still, pulling back the bowstring

And she did it all in a black velvet cloak

She did it all in a black velvet cloak

Through all your crocodile tears with a lump in her throat

She hid it all away in her black velvet cloak

Everything destroyed comes back again in the end

Everything destroyed comes back again in the end

Everything destroyed will return again

Everything destroyed will return again
