Throw A Blanket Over The Sun Lyrics

Shannon Wright Throw A Blanket Over The Sun

He throws a blanket over the sun
He closes out everyone
While she prays,
"Don't let him take me. There must be a better way."

You will come to me in a dream
Rifled of my sorrow or just to ease my pain
And let it slay me or let me suffocate

Oh, why must you leave
This lamb you wound remains
if only to see your face
I pray on my knees

Oh, why must you leave
This lamb you wound remains
if only to see your face
I've taken everything

Even the birds could not
take the burden of her body's plate
No wires held in place
Her body just could never mend

And let it take me
Oh, come take me instead

No love is here
No love is here
No love is here
No love is here
No love is here
No love is here
No love is here
No love is here

Oh, why must you leave?
This lamb you wound remains
if only to see your face
I pray on my knees

If only to see your face
This lamb you wound remains
I pray on my knees
You've taken everything
