Wolf By The River Testo

The moon was bright, I could see it clear
The night I went underneath the water
Yeah, the moon was bright, I saw it smile
Because I knew we'd soon be together

You lit me up, and you let me down
And then you took my body to the river
I was so young
He was so young
I had no scars And had no scars
I felt the tightness of your clutching fingers
Around my throat, you were singing

Shut your mouth, baby, don't say a word
You are young and beautiful, and you are too good for this world
Shut your mouth, baby, I'm coming to set you free
With a thistle, and a whistle, and a grave I need to dig

And as I flew, above the night, I had, oh, so many questions
Why in my youth?
Why in my youth?
Would you strike me down?
Strike me down
After all, you knew how much I loved you
And he replied, with a smile
"I am a wolf, after all, my darling"

Shut your mouth, baby, don't say a word
You are young and beautiful, and you are too good for this world Shut your mouth, baby, I'm coming to set you free
With a thistle, and a whistle, and a grave I need to dig

Shut your mouth, baby, don't say a word
You are young and beautiful, and you are too good for this world
Shut your mouth, baby, I'm coming to set you free
With a thistle, and a whistle, and a grave I need to dig
