Patrick Wolf - Penzance

b-side to 'The Libertine'

In a time of loneliness
I fell into your strong open arms
And in those arms you loved me well
You hid me in your charm

And in that charm we headed south
Knowing nothing of my demons

There were devils in the winds at night
Walking fire among the hills
And many voices called me out to the cliffs
But you held me safe
You wrestled me still

Wiping the black blood from my mouth
Speeding into nowhere

It starts in Penzance where the winds are born
And follows the track of this train
And just like my love calling out for you
It is calling me back again and again

What a beautiful town
I shouted out
Oh, but what a terrifying view

You know I wrestled with my bruised hours
Just to lie there next to you

Deep in the dark heart of the south
Speeding into nowhere

My love, come stop me
I am haunted and possessed
And with my darkest hour yet to come
It's only you
Only you can stop me now

Come back to Penzance where the winds are born
Just follow the track of this train
And just like this love calling out for you
It is calling me out again and again

So come stop me
Only you can stop me
Stop me
Now

@DamnHotChocolate it's in Cornwall. Magical place. I love it, I've been there in april, without tourists... amazing. Cornwall is definitely my favourite place in Europe.
