Marianne Faithfull - Sister Morphine songtekst
Je score:
Here I lie in my hospital bed Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again? Oh, I don't think I can wait that long Oh, you see that my pain is so strong All the other patients say they've never seen a man with such pain Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again? Oh, I don't think I can wait that long Oh, you see that I'm not that strong The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here? What am I doing in this place? Why does the doctor have no face? Oh, I can't crawl across the floor Can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm just trying to score Well, it just goes to show things are not what they seem Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmare into dreams Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast And that this shot will be my last Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool hands on my head Hey, Sister Morphine, you'd better make up my bed For you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead And you can sit around and watch the clean white sheets stain red
