Seven times I went down
Six times I walked back
And I don't fear the dark anymore
'Cause I've become all that
All that, all that
I will be rocks
I will be water
I will leave this to my daughter
Lift your head up in the wind
When you feel yourself grow colder
Wrap the night around your shoulders
And I will be with you even then, even when
I cannot see your face anymore
Oo-oo-oo-ho
Don't forget the time
I wooed him with red wine
The devil, he wore
Such a fine, fine shirt
And it stayed so clean while he dragged me through the dirt, now honey
Don't trust anyone
Who looks you in the eye
Don't take any kindness
It's a demand in disguise
I will be rocks
I will be water
I will leave this to my daughter
Lift your head up in the wind
When you feel yourself grow colder
Wrap the night around your shoulders
And I will be with you even then, even when
I cannot see your face anymore
Oo-oo-oo hoo
Oo-oo-oo hoo, 'cause I have
Seen such things, child
I have seen (I have seen)
I have seen, I have
Seen such things, child
On this and the other side
Words cannot show you
The midnight owl, it does not know you
You will see for your sweet self
By and by
