Joan Baez - Scarlet Tide lyrics
Well, I recall his parting words
 Must I accept his fate
 Or take myself far from this place?
 I thought I heard a black bell toll
 A little bird did sing
 Man loses all when he wants everything
 And we'll rise above the scarlet tide
 That trickles down through the mountain
 And separates the widow from the bride
 Man goes beyond his own decision
 Gets caught up in his own mechanism
 Of swindlers who act like kingsJoan Baez - Scarlet Tide - http://motolyrics.com/joan-baez/scarlet-tide-lyrics.html
 And brokers who break everything
 The darkest night was swiftly falling
 Into the dawn of the day
 Why would I want him
 Just to lose him again?
 And we'll rise above the scarlet tide
 That trickles down through the mountain
 And separates the widow from the bride
 We'll rise above the scarlet tide
 That trickles down through the mountain
 And separates the widow from the bride
