The Gravedigger’s Song Songtext
von Mark Lanegan

With piranha teeth
I been dreaming of you
And the taste of your love so sweet
Honest, it′s true

Through my heart flows sleep
And the dark heavy rain
Where the gravedigger's song is sung
You′ve been torturing me

Tout est noir, mon amour
Tout est blanc
Je t'aime, mon amour
Comme j'aime la nuit

Love
Is the medicine good?
Is the crow flying eight miles high?
Over wire and wood


Shovel down six feet
With a head heavy pain
The magnolia blooms so sweet
And it fades just the same

To the stars my love
To the sea
To the wheels my love
′Til they roll all over me

Oh love
I been thinking of you
With razor white teeth so sharp
Honest its true

In my blood flows sleep
And the dark heavy rain
The magnolia blooms so sweet
Only torturing me

To the stars my love
To the sea
To the wheels my love
′Til they roll all over me
