Emily Davis - Conjure Woman Blues Lyrics



Emily Davis - Conjure Woman Blues Lyrics




Meet me at the hellmouth where the dusk it meets the dawn
I will sing you sweetened symphony, wax and wane with the moon
If you know that I'm a liar, not a conjure woman be
When I kiss your lips with artifice
The truth will set you free

I've been snakebit here before my love
Got the scar of which to prove
Aint no archangel from heaven come
To save you when you lose
If you burn in me with appetite of gall and fire and blood
Then your acrimony drown your pretty bones here
In the mud

I will circle you like a raven
I will watch you while you sleep
I will reach into your chest
Strike a light against your heart
And watch you burn, burn, burn down to my feet

I'll watch you burn, burn baby burn
I'll watch you burn
I'll watch you burn, burn, burn baby burn
I'll watch you burn, burn, burn down to my feet

Hush now love and hold me near against the midnight sky
The taste of love is sweet like jasmine flowers in the night
In apocalyptic dreamscapes
I have run with you alone
Take my hands, take my breath
Turning back turns you to stone
Turning back turns you to stone
Turning back turns you to stone
