lyrics

Oh angel Martha
Do you remember me now ?
I can’t forget you took the first train
Oh Martha (I can’t forget you took the first train)
Why did you choose the first train ?
Oh angel Martha (I don’t know why)
Do you remember me now in Heaven ?
Why did you take the first train ?
Why did you forget my name ?
I’m alone now (Oh, sky is grey today)
And you don’t remember my name
(Are you sure of what you did ? Are you sure ?)
I can’t remember why, you can’t remember

His eyes soft like his throat under my hands
And now, under the floor
He cannot say that you’re in Heaven again
And the dogs are after me

Oh Lord, please let me go
Let me walk through the garden, oh Lord
Please
I know I can’t stay for long
I know what I did
I know I don’t deserve anything of you
Lord


Martha, you’re my love, Martha, you’re my heart
But I can’t forget that you took the first train
But I cannot forget that you took the first train
Oh Lord, is it your angel, is it mine ?
Oh Lord, ain’t that your red angel in the sky ?
Is that the sound of forgiveness ?
Is that the sound of death ?
Is that your angel, Lord, who tears the sky apart ?
The rain on my eye
The dogs on my feet
I cannot see
Anymore
