Concrete Blonde Classic Masters Sky Is a Poisonous Garden



The stars above shine down below
the fever you hold on this night
deathly cold
I can feel from this side of the door
I can feel Eleanor
He said, sun don't rise...
he said sun don't shine
he said don't bring tomorrow
to justify tonight
The moon is full-the stars are bright
and the sky is a poisonous garden
tonight.
Sip your Tequila. Give me some time
to unlearn all I've learned for the
spring to unwind
and then came your sweet mouth
I began to move mine.
They knew with the dawn-
they knew with the day
they knew what they had
would be young naked prey
and attacked from all sides
by a world filled with
poison and hate
Eleanor trembles. Eleanor moans.
Somehow, this body is someone
she always has known
she cries tears on his chest
O so silent and slow-
She said please don't go. Please don't go-
and she cried and she died in his arms
and he cried nevermore
the moon is full, the stars are bright
and the sky is a poisonous garden
tonight.
