Ballet Spandau - Missionary Lyrics


Ballet Spandau Lyrics

Missionary Lyrics
The bells ring out above my room
An announcement of our loss
And in the act three men decide
An indefinite epilogue
My letters have all gone
A journey that's unsure
A message that was rich
A hand that was poor

Oh have me breath and let me go
Cause I don't want you to know
Cause I don't want you to know
Oh I don't want you, want you
Want you

My own description may have failed
Torn from pictures that were saved
Along with images from words
That were saved and not erased
The shelves arranged above my head
A memory of my fears
Blankets hold the smell of life
And soak the many years

Oh have me breath and let me go
Cause I don't want you to know
Cause I don't want you to know
Oh I don't want you, want you
Want you

Oh missionary are you here
(Repeat)

Sun doesn't burn when the water comes
But water doesn't come like the English rain
They bury their heads for self defense
A marked improvement through diligence
We are alone against our sins
Alone against our sins
Alone against our sins

Vacant rooms that are full of men
That sit on stools awaiting time
Discussion leads to little sense
They bury their heads for self defense
We are alone against our sins
Alone against our sins
Alone against our sins
