Nos Da Cariad Lyrics

NOS DA CARIAD



One lifetime is long enough 

Is long enough to wait 

The rain like silver in my ears 

Fat nothing on my plate 

A bucketful of Babylon 

A belly full of hate 

Go to sleep my one true love 

And may your dreams be sweet 



Then we’ll be running 



See its face beneath the glass 

It murmurs on the breeze 

Like a long black Cadillac 

It passes ‘neath the trees 

What is it you’re waiting for? 

Sweet love is on its knees 

Go to sleep my one true love 

And find your heart’s release 



Then we’ll be running 

Afraid of nothing 

Yeah we’ll be running 



Silence is golden 

Here I am 

I ain’t afraid of nothing 

Silence is golden 

Here I am 



The sun above the cotton grass 

Is sinking down like lead 

The seagulls know the truth of it 

And scream it overhead 

Hold on to St. Christopher 

The sky is murderous red 

Go to sleep my one true love 

Our glory lies ahead 



Then we’ll be running 

Afraid of nothing 

Then we’ll be running 



All wired up in a dawning ray 

All wired up in a dawning ray 

All wired up in a dawning ray 

All wired up in a dawning ray
