I pray to the saints and all the martyrs
For the secret life of Frank Sinatra
But none of these things have come to pass
In America the law is a piece of ***
I live out yonder where the snakes and scorpions run
got myself a little goldmine to bank on
but one day my heart sank when I saw Madame in town
I knew her love would be the death of mine
o sankofa high on the heavens you soar
my soul is soon to follow you
back to yesterday's moon
it will remember me back to yesterday's sun
rekindle the spirit into tomorrow
and high on the wind
sankofa flies again and again
Do you remember the time I knew a girl from mars?
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards
Henri Winterman cigars
And she never told me her name
I still love you the girl from mars
And all the memories of the pubs And the clubs and the drugs and the tubs We shared together Will stay with me forever -The Libertines "Music when the lights go out"
"I love you through sparks and shining, dragons I do
now this poetry in an empty coke can
I love you through sparks and shining dragons I do
now this majesty in a burnt out caravan
got me off the playground, just sprang out of the air
best things come from nowhere
I love you I don't think you care."
