Darjeeling, my sacred thing 

Dress yourself in me 

Took a long, long time 

For the night tide 

To bring you home to me 



If I could have died 

If I could have physically died 

Of a broken heart 

I would have 



Darjeeling, my precious thing 

You have clipped my wings 

Took it all in stride 

Took the wrong side 

Made it all worth while 

Ooh 



Never looked outside 

No, I never questioned 

Never raised my voice to anyone 



Darjeeling 



The tide is closing over my face 

The sky is vaulting over this place 

This world is far wide to hide 

I'm weak that way 

My Earl is gray 



Darjeeling, my painted dream 

You stop everything

Darjeeling, darjeeling 

Dress yourself in me
