Cocorosie lyrics : "Gallows"

It was just before the moon hung
Her weary heavy head in
The gallows and the graves of

The milky milky cradle
His tears have turned to poppies
A shimmer in the midnight

A flower in the twilight
A flower in the twilight


And our screaming
Is in his screaming
Our screaming in the willow


They took him to the gallows
He fought them all the way though

And when they asked us how we knew his name
We died just before him
Our eyes are in the flowers

Our hands are in the branches
Our voices in the breezes


And our screaming
Is in his screaming
Our screaming in the willow tree


We're waiting by the willow
Our milky milky cradle

Our lockets long have rusted
His picture worn and weathered
Our hair is in the garden

The roses in our toeses
Our heart are in the blossoms
Our eyes are in the branches


And our screaming
Is in his screaming

Our screaming in the willow tree

Our screaming

Is in his screaming
Our screaming in the willow tree
