Lyrics for Broken Flag by PATTI SMITH:
| | | Artist: | PATTI SMITH |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Broken Flag | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 60 | | | | Lyrics: | Nodding tho the lamp's lit low, nod for passers underground.
To and fro she's darning, and the
land is weeping red and pale.
Weeping yarn from Algiers. Weeping yarn from
Algiers.
Weaving tho the eyes are pale, what will rend will also mend.
The sifting
cloth is binding, and the dream she weaves will never end.
For we're marching toward Algiers.
For we're marching toward Algiers.
Lullaby tho baby's gone. Lullaby a broken song.
Oh,
the cradle was our call. When it rocked we carried on.
And we marched on toward Algiers. For
we're marching toward Algiers
We're still marching for Algiers. Marching, marching for
Algiers.
Not to hail a barren sky. Sifting cloth is weeping red.
The mourning veil is waving
high a field of stars and tears we've shed.
In the sky a broken flag, children wave and raise
their arms.
We'll be gone but they'll go on and on and on and on and on. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
