Beyond the Pale (The Mission cover)

(by The Mission) (Music by: Adams, Brown, Simon Hinkler, Hussey; Lyrics by: Hussey) Cold still waters running deep Pale before the eyes Ravaged By the hands that feed Thunder clouds the skies Drifting with the tide Floating with the stream The howling winds have gathered strength From a whisper to a scream Sell me down the river And out to sea Cast me adrift and set me to sail Just one last kiss before raising hell Beyond the pale Beyond the pale Heed to Neptune's calling deceived in fable and lore Learn from treacherous bibles Of murder, hate and war Searching for the tears In an ocean of rain The yearning of the raging sea beckons once again Sell me down the river And out to sea Cast me adrift and set me to sail Just one last kiss before raising hell Beyond the pale Beyond the pale Gathering of the storm And the winds are blowing wild Sweeping over cross and creed, country, colour and child Mother nature cries for love Her children lost at sea And as the waves take me away Say a prayer for liberty Sell me down the river And out to sea Cast me adrift and set me to sail Just one last kiss before raising hell Beyond the pale
