mojo pin

"I'm lying in my bed
The blanket is warm
This body will never be
Safe from harm
Still feel your hair
Black ribbons of coal
Touch my skin
To keep me whole....

Oh...if only you'd come back to me..
If you laid at my side...
Wouldn't need no Mojo Pin
To keep me satisfied...

Don't wanna weep for you
Don't wanna know
I'm blind and tortured
The white horses flow
Memory is fire
The rhythms fall slow
Black beauty, I love you so....

oh precious precious silver and gold
And pearls in oyster's flesh
Drop down we two to serve
and pray to love
Born again from the rhythm
Screaming down from heaven
Ageless, ageless and
I'm there in your arms......

Don't wanna weep for you
I don't wanna know
I'm blind and tortured
The white horses flow
The memory is fire
The rhythms fall slow..
Black beauty, I love you so

Oh the welts of your scorn,
my love, Give me more
Send whips of opinion down
my back, Give me more
Well it's you I've waited my life to see
It's you I've searched so hard for....

Don't wanna weep for you
Don't wanna know
I'm blind and tortured
The white horses flow
The memory is fire
The rhythms fall slow..
Black beauty I love you so."
