Bert Jansch Lyrics for Song: Needle Of Death
 Lyrics for Album: Angie: Collection [2011]
 
 
 
 9224>When sadness fills your heart
 
 And sorrow hides the longing to be free
 
 When things go wrong each day
 
 You fix your mind to 'scape your misery
 
 
 
 Your troubled young life
 
 Had made you turn
 
 To a needle of death
 
 
 
 How strange, your happy words
 
 Have ceased to bring a smile from everyone
 
 How tears have filled the eyes
 
 Of friends that you once had walked among
 
 
 
 Your troubled young life
 
 Had made you turn
 
 To a needle of death
 
 
 
 One grain of pure white snow
 
 Dissolved in blood spread quickly to your brain
 
 In peace your mind withdraws
 
 Your death so near your soul can't feel no pain
 
 
 
 Your troubled young life
 
 Had made you turn
 
 To a needle of death
 
 
 
 Your mother stands a'cryin'
 
 While to the earth your body's slowly cast
 
 Your father stands in silence
 
 Caressing every young dream of the past
 
 
 
 Your troubled young life
 
 Had made you turn
 
 To a needle of death
 
 
 
 Through ages, man's desires
 
 To free his mind, to release his very soul
 
 Has proved to all who live
 
 That death itself is freedom for evermore
 
 
 
 And your troubled young life
 
 Will make you turn
 
 To a needle of death
 
 9224>
