The Sisters of Mercy - Heartland (12" EP 1983)

The Sisters of Mercy - Heartland

Lay me down the long white line
Leave the sirens far behind me
Paint my name in black and gold
My heart my flame my heart my road
My heartland fade across the line
Heartland sing the faces shining
In the failing failing failing
Heartland make the places mine

Clearly now the past mistakes
The giant steps we had to take
The path that ever promise made to
Die in dream dissolve and fade

My heartland heartland heartland

Behind the lines a face that glimmers
Still looking for a face that shines
In the promise in the places
I'm going to make them mine

My heartland, heartland, heartland.....

From the first second I heard that song I was flabbergasted - and I still am!. It is one of my most efficient uppers whenever I'm at rockbottom or just have the blues.It is my Sisters Killer song. That guitar lick is so monotonously beautiful.

@Waver80 I once had that 12" E.P. and borrowed it to a 'good' friend....gone with the wind now together with the 12"of The reptile house!! Can't buy it anywhere on vinyl anymore for under a gigagazillion euro's! Damn those friends! That's how I lost the only worthy L.P. from The Damned too : 'Phantasmagoria' and I'll be damned if I were going to download that! I'm a vinyl-junkie!!!
