Jill Lorean - Black Dog

You loved me so much that you gave me the sun
But the heat became heavy so you dragged it back down
cnd you threw up the moon with the flick of your thumb
cnd scattered all the stars with the swing of your arm

How can I laugh and how can I cry
When I stretch my gaze across the sky
How can I laugh and how can I cry
When I'm standing on the edge of endless time

You wanted me to smile so you gave me the clouds
To cover up the sun and cool me down
You carved a cathedral and filled it with beasts
Who howled at the altar of my endless feasts

How can I laugh and how can I cry
When I stretch my gaze across the sky
How can I laugh and how can I cry
When I'm standing on the edge of endless time

You thought you saw me cry so you swallowed the sky
cnd the eyes of a black dog sitting in the clouds
But I longed for the moon and the stars and the sun
So you threw back your head and you spit it out again

How can I laugh and how can I cry
When I stretch my gaze across the sky
How can I laugh and how can I cry
When I'm standing on the edge of endless time
