Hold your tongue and walk away

Say its been a lovely day

Say tomorrow evening's fine

Please ???, Saint John Devine



Until discordant bells have rung

Hold, hold your tongue



Hold your tongue and walk away

Say it's been a heavenly day

Angels sing a lullaby

Hush now, don't you start to cry



Guilded wing and silver lung

Hold, hold your tongue



I'll say what I want to say

And when I want it said

But tonight, love's coming down on me

La la la la la la la la la

La la la la la Oooo oh oh



Hold your tongue until you're gone

All your words might come undone

Say goodnight and walk away

Silent bows begin to sway



Chiming melodies unsung

Hold, hold your tongue

And hold, hold your tongue

And hold, hold your tongue
