nile rivers (nile russo) - on the eve of my destruction lyrics

Loading...

[verse]
on the eve of my destruction
i took a picture of the dawn
on the night of my undoing
scarlet woman of babylon was in my arms

[refrain]
how she calls us to the dawn
how the days would soon be gone

[verse]
my time passed through thereafter
and my days grew ever long
like a fool, i was waiting for my letter
but soon the months, soon the years were gone

[refrain]
how she calls me to the dawn
how the nights would soon be long

[verse]
and so, i sought out for my penance
yet i only found defense
for those of us, who’d rather live by a stranger
than die by a friend
[refrain]
how she calls me to the dawn
how the nights would soon be long

[verse]
as i sit now by the water
god rest each one of you
as the west wind’s surely blowin’
i wait for my dawn to start anew

[outro]
people that you tried to
stories that we made up
people that will leave you
morning of the earth
morning of the earth
(i’m a folkstar, not a northstar)
