"Merriweather" lyrics - ALDOUS HARDING

My name is Merriweather, I sing just like I see
The song that I'm living, grace has given me
The one that I love is here by my side
And I'll love this man wholly till this world sucks me dry

He watches over the roses that bloom in my soul
And all through the garden, his name does grow
The one that I lost is under the dust
And deeper he's buried as he learns of our love

My love drives on till morning, the devil behind
I talk of the colours filling my mind
He'll take on the demon, then keep him in chains
And smile as his ashes fly over the plains

My name is Merriweather, I sing just like I see
And all the hurried people ain't touching me
The one that I love is here by my side
And I'll love this man wholly till this world sucks me dry
Yes, I'll love this man wholly till this world sucks me dry
