Oh the sisters of mercy

they are not departed or gone

they were waiting for me

when I thought that I just can't go on

And they brought me their comfort

and later they brought me this song

Oh yes I hope you run into them

you who've been travelling so long

You who must leave everything

that you cannot control

it begins with your family

but soon it comes round to your soul

well I've been where you're hanging

I think I can see how you're pinned

When you're not feeling holy

your loneliness tells that you've sinned

They lay down beside me

I made my confession to them

they touched both my eyes

and I touched the dew on their hem

If your life is a leaf

that the seasons tear off and condemn

they will bind you with love

that is graceful and green as a stem

When I left they were sleeping

I hope you run into them soon

don't turn on the light

you can read their address by the moon

and you won't make me jealous

if I heard that they sweetened your night

we weren't lovers like that

and besides it would still be all right
