Concrete Blonde - The Sky Is a Poisonous Garden Lyrics

The stars above shine down below
The fever you hold on this night deathly cold
He can feel from his side of the door
He can feel Eleanor

He said, sun don't rise, he said sun don't shine
He said don't bring tomorrow to justify tonight

The moon is full and the stars are bright
And the sky is a poisonous garden tonight

Sip your tequila, give me some time
To unlearn all I've learned for the spring to unwind
And then came your sweet gentle mouth
I began to move mine

They knew with the dawn, they knew with the day
They knew what they had would be young naked prey
And attacked from all sides
By a world full of poison and hate

Out of this world, out of this time
Out of control, they were out of their minds

The moon is full and the stars are bright
And the sky is a poisonous garden tonight

Eleanor trembles, Eleanor moans
Somehow, this body is someone she always has known
She cries tears on his chest
Oh so silent and slow

She said "Please don't go", she said, "Please don't go"
And she sighed and she died in his arms and he cried nevermore

The moon is full, the stars are bright
And the sky is a poisonous garden tonight
The sky is a poisonous garden tonight
The sky is a poisonous garden tonight
The sky is a poisonous garden tonight
