I cried to my daddy on the telephone 
 how long now 
Until the clouds unroll and [bad word] home 
 the line went 
But the shadows still remain since your descent 
 your descent 

The saints [bad word]  the saints [bad word] 
No matter how I try, I realise there's no reply 
The saints [bad word]  the saints [bad word] 

drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief 
 How long now 
Until a weather change condemns belief 
 The stone says 
This paternal guide once had his day 
 Once had his day 

The saints [bad word]  the saints [bad word] 
No matter how I try, I realise there's no reply 
The saints [bad word]  the saints [bad word]
