Sister of Mercy (12" Version)
She lives in a big white house
The rooms are lemon and she's devoted to life
Of keeping this house just right, ooh, ooh
The weekends are perfectly nice ooh, ooh
And she doesn't talk when he comes home at night
Twenty five years she's just the same
She's a lonely woman, quiet in her ways
Then he comes home one night
She kills him with a knife
Now she's the one who's a living in paradise
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
It's all alright for me, now she sits in a big white chair
In a room that's not so different to the one back there
She turns her face to the light
But she is blinded by her life
You can hear her cry alone at night
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
So have mercy on that woman
You don't know the way it's been
You don't know the trouble her eyes have seen
Can you feel the kiss of life when you come home at night?
Well, you better not turn your back on a paradise
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Sister of mercy
(Sister of mercy)
Sister of mercy, oh, oh
Sister of mercy
(Sister of mercy)
Sister of mercy, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
The rooms are lemon and she's devoted to life
Of keeping this house just right, ooh, ooh
The weekends are perfectly nice ooh, ooh
And she doesn't talk when he comes home at night
Twenty five years she's just the same
She's a lonely woman, quiet in her ways
Then he comes home one night
She kills him with a knife
Now she's the one who's a living in paradise
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
It's all alright for me, now she sits in a big white chair
In a room that's not so different to the one back there
She turns her face to the light
But she is blinded by her life
You can hear her cry alone at night
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
So have mercy on that woman
You don't know the way it's been
You don't know the trouble her eyes have seen
Can you feel the kiss of life when you come home at night?
Well, you better not turn your back on a paradise
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Sister of mercy
(Sister of mercy)
Sister of mercy, oh, oh
Sister of mercy
(Sister of mercy)
Sister of mercy, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
Oh, don't cry for me
(Sister of mercy)
No, sister of mercy
