Crowded House Catherine Wheel Lyrics

Catherine Wheel Lyrics

No night to stay in

 Bad moon is rising again

 Dice rolls 

 And you burn

 Come down I fear

 As that cold wheel turns

 

 I know what I know

 Sad clone's been sleeping around

 To stroke the right nerve

 Whose needs do I serve

 As Catherine's wheel turns

 

 She was always the first to say gone

 She's got her catherine wheels on

 Always the first to say gone

 

 Go kindly with him

 To his blind apparition

 Whose face creases up

 With age gone grey

 He'll back here one day

 

 She was always the first to say gone

 She's got her catherine wheels on

 Always the first to say gone

 She's got her catherine wheels on

 Wheels on

 Catherine wheels

 

 She's gone

 Vanished in the night

 Broke off the logic of light

 He woke

 Tore the covers back

 Found he was empty inside

 So they were told 

 When the moon would rise

 The best time to leave with your soul

 She's gone

 But towards the light

 Watching her whole life unfold

 Bruises come out dark

 

 So strong was his hold on her

 Regarded by some as his slave

 He spoke as in a stranger's tongue

 To spare us and drive you away

 Bruises come out dark
