Type O Negative — Nettie

Текст песни: Nettie

Nettie Lyrics[Chorus]
Nettie, no need to cry
Let me wipe those tear drops from your eyes
[x2]

In the dark bathed in Cathode ray blue
Miss Red Hook of 1922
Weeping silently for the pain of others
Every night a tearful rosary
A victim of the curse of empathy
Her reward for compassion is to suffer
[Chorus]
Nettie, no need to cry
Let me wipe those tear drops from your eyes
[x2]

My shortcomings I know caused her grief
Still she loves me. This I can't believe!
Responding not with anger but a prayer
Heaven's just Southwest of Cobble Hill
True, I am the son of an Angel
Maternally, not one woman compares

[Chorus]
Nettie, no need to cry
Let me wipe those tear drops from your eyes
[x2]

Invocus virium
Solo crux matris sin
Novo vis for tuit
Rum repus omni dei

If you fall, I will catch you
When you're lost, I'll be there soon
Far away, but of course near
When you're sad, I'm always here
Thank you for saving me from myself
Your compassion became its own hell
Unequivocably beautiful inside and out
Without a doubt

[Chorus]
Nettie, no need to cry
Let me wipe those tear drops from your eyes
[x2]2
