Letra de Black Day In December

Mermaid sits on a Siwash rock in the harbour
Watching the children play
And everyday, sun or rain
Old man kneels to the earth, to pray
For the rain and the stars
And the cars at the heart
A dark and windy Vancouver
A black day in December

She sees the worst is yet to come, yeah
A big wave on the horizon
The first wind blowing in
Left Stanley soldiers felled and broken

And we went oh, oh

Old Man kneels to the earth in his mother's garden
Where his own father was laid
And everyday, sun or rain
Mermaid sits on her rock and she prays
For the salmon in the sea
For the winged in the trees
For the old man on his knees, oh
And for the beauty in the park and
The cars at the heart
Her own sisters and her brothers
And Ten Thousand friends and lovers
A black day in December
A black day in December

Mermaid sits on a tide-washed rock in the harbour
Where the blue heron would lay
And everyday, sun or rain
Old friends fall to the earth and decay
With the city by the sea
Sweet brine in the breeze
And the mountains watching over
Her Vancouver

A black day in December
A black day in December

A black day in December
A black day in December

Oh, oh
