put on my best sunday dress
walked straight into this mess of mine
yeah, put on my best sunday dress
walked straight into this mess
hey, watching you burn, aah, aah
watching you burn, aah, aah
watching you burn, aah, aah
watching you burn, aah, aah
pale blue eyes so young
pale blue eyes so far away
wash me with his sorrow
forgive me all his pain
i've come here to confess
through the wind and the rain
and the glorious fame
and i've come here all undressed
the numb and the dumb all say
the name you burned aah
watching you burn
pale blue eyes so dumb
pale blue eyes so far away
take him to the river
forgive us all his pain
oooh, ooh i'm coming undone
he comes from coal mine
i see you shine like a diamond
and curse us all goodnight
put on my best sunday dress
and walk straight into this mess of mine
i've come here all undressed
for the poison and pain and to
take what is mine that you burn
aah, that you burn, aah
that you burn
pale blue eyes so young
pale blue eyes so far away
take me to his sorrow
forgive us all his pain
watching you burn
