"Poison Arrow" lyrics

"Poison Arrow"

Poison arrow be kind to me and I'll be kind to you
It's not just your poison, it's the bow, the string
Shaft and feather too
The rush of the wind
The blue sky above
The rain that soaked the ground
To give the oleander love

Go in peace be not afraid
Roll em easy, Namaste
All you sad and broken travelers, come on

Poison arrow broke in my chest
But I'm In my finery
At Le Divan on Boulevard St. Laurent
Sipping dry sherry
The sun is bleeding slow
She dies in pink and blue
Etta's on the radio
Singing trust in me in all you do

Go in peace be not afraid
Roll em easy namaste
All you sad and broken travelers, come on

Je te souhaîte la paix
Je te souhaîte l'acceptance
Je te souhaîte une deuxième chance
Et le coeur, le coeur d'un enfant
Routier Routier
Chanter! Chanter!
L'heure des miracles est arrivée
Le poison peut-être médecin
Si t'on bois une goute seulement

Go in peace be not afraid
Roll em easy, Namaste
All you sad and broken travelers, come on
