Song : Blood Wedding



 Send "Blood Wedding" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
Carlita is waiting down on C & 9th 

In mantilla and lace 

And her lover's knife 

Cries out for revenge 

But she is silent like a stone 

And beautiful in her widow's weeds 

I wait in the darkness 

Forever now alone 

Too late for any tear shedding 

While his bride waits down on C & 9th 

For her blood wedding 



Why did you have to go out tonight 

With the full moon in scarlet 

And his silver knife 

Waiting for you 

And the remains of your life 

Ticking away like some pitiful clock 

And I who could not even be called your wife 

Safe and warm in your bedding 

And you the bridegroom off on your way 

To your blood wedding 



And the Ukranian ladies 

Light candles in the street 

Where his body lay bleeding 

And the projects are silent 

Bracing for the heat 

That must come from his blood wedding 



Carlita why do you hate me so much 

I long for your body 

I die for your touch 

On my burning skin 

And the smell of your perfume 

Will always remain on my bed 

But I died every time 

You entered his room 

I could not let him go on living 

And now you wait down on C & 9th 

Dying to celebrate my blood wedding 



I wait in the shadows of C & 9th 

With my fingers caressing 

His sacred knife 

You loved my body 

But he loved my soul 

You thought you knew me 

But what do men know 

Except my lover whose shape is etched in chalk on
the street 

Soon to be washed away by the rain 

While you wait in the darkness dreading 

The shock of my knife 

At your blood wedding
