Kingdoms of Rain (Vocals by Mark Lanegan & Jimi Goodwin)
Are those halos in your hair or diamonds shining there Without a hope, without a prayer This rain beats down like death You turn your eyes to better men
Before I go, I'm hanging a cross on a nail I hung one for you in there
Girl, lay your shame to rest And hold the lies close to your breast You stoop to feed the crows Some scraps of truth already cold
Before I go, I'm hanging a cross on a nail I hung one for you in there And every kingdom of rain comes pouring down 'Cause I loved you so long 'Cause I loved you so long
Would you put halos in your hair Without a hope, without a prayer With lies close to your breast You finally lay your shame to rest
Before I go, I'm hanging a cross on a nail I hung one for you in there And every kingdom of rain comes pouring down 'Cause I loved you so long 'Cause I loved you so long
