Lyrics

I'll chase 'em to the bottom
Till I've finally caught 'em
Dreams fall deep
Where voices come a-chimin'
Moanin' and a-rhymin'
Warning me
Their words are ringin' and a-whinin'
Hear 'em weep
Songs from so deep
While I'm sleepin'
Seep in
Sweepin' over me
Still the echo's achin'
"Leave us not forsaken"
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
Eleison, eleison, eleison
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
So sad
And so true
That even shadows come
And hum the requiem
O waters of the moon
Your vapors swirl and swoon
Your wake is wide
(Wake is wide)
And sorrow's like an arrow
Shootin' straight and narrow
Aimin' true, it's sting goes
Reachin' to the marrow
Silence cried
Now songs from so deep
While I'm sleepin'
Seep in
Sweepin' over me
Still the echo's achin'
"Leave us not forsaken"
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
Eleison, eleison, eleison
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
So sad
And so true
That even shadows come
And hum the requiem
Kyrie eleison
Kyrie eleison
