[00:00.58]Oh the sisters of mercy
[00:02.39]They are not departed or gone
[00:06.38]They were waiting for me
[00:13.62]When I thought that I just can't go on
[00:17.99]And they brought me their comfort
[00:24.11]And later they brought me this song
[00:28.13]Oh I hope you run into them
[00:35.23]You who've been travelling so long
[00:38.60]You who must leave everything
[00:57.72]That you cannot control
[01:00.79]It begins with your family
[01:07.52]But soon it comes round to your soul
[01:11.53]Well I've been where you're hanging
[01:17.71]I think I can see how you're pinned
[01:21.26]When you're not feeling holy
[01:27.81]Your loneliness tells that you've sinned
[01:31.50]They lay down beside me
[01:50.30]I made my confession to them
[01:53.98]They touched both my eyes
[02:01.03]And I touched the dew on their hem
[02:07.15]If your life is a leaf
[02:10.71]That the seasons tear off and condemn
[02:14.89]They will bind you with love
[02:21.06]That is graceful and green as a stem
[02:24.81]When I left they were sleeping
[02:43.09]I hope you run into them soon
[02:47.02]Don't turn on the light
[02:53.58]You can read their address by the moon
[02:57.19]And you won't make me jealous
[03:03.62]If I heard that they sweetened your night
[03:07.20]We weren't lovers like that
[03:13.62]And besides it would still be all right
[03:17.61]We weren't lovers like that
[03:23.99]And besides it would still be all right
