Carla Bruni - Lady Weeping At The Crossroads Lyrics

Lady weepinng at the crossroads

Would you meet your love

In twilight with his greyhounds

And the hawk upon his glove?

Bribe the bird then on the branches

Bribe them to be dumb

Stare the hot sun out of heaven

That the night may come.

Starless are the nights of travel

Bleak the winter wind;

Run with terror all before you

And regret behind.

Run until you hear the ocean's

Everlasting cry;

Deep though it may be and bitter

You must drink it dry

Wear out patience in the lowest

Dungeons of the sea

Searching through the stranded shipwrecks

For the golden key

Push on to the world's end pay the

Dread guard with a kiss

Cross the rotten bridge that totters

Over the abyss.

There stands the deserted castle

Ready to explore;

Enter climb the marble staircase

Open the locked door.

Cross the silent empty ballroom

Doubt and anger past;

Blow the cobwebs from the mirror

See yourself at last.

Put your hand behind the wainscot

You have done your part;

Find the penknife there and plunge it

Into your false heart
