lyrics

St Cecilia's Day

In a house, in a town, I could throw my arms around
The failure of a fear that runs from there to here

Oh well she sits next to me though I travel alone just me
I will wait for her shadow to appear I will wait for her year after year

On a horse she rode, through a car park in a suburb
She wore a necklace, half asleep and reckless
Can you help me find a witness?

If you are afraid, don't succumb so quietly
Shout for her oh scream for her oh sing to her delightfully
With love she waits, for losers at the finish line
She hands out the medals whilst the medal winners stand in line

It was Saint Cecilia's day when the fear failed
It was Saint Cecilia's day when I threw my arms around
It was Saint Cecilia's day and she was real
It was Saint Cecilia's day, Saint Cecilia's day
