lyrics

Been a cold night
And a shaky start
Come from a poisoned morning
Come with a bleating heart

I'm gonna call John Alfred
He's just a mile away
With his red hair flowing

I've been searching searching John
And this searching makes me feel so alone
Come light a fire with me in the darkness child
When we need shelter we come home

Have you seen Bella Louise?
Cause her sweet velvet smile sure does something for me
Last time I saw her she was heading east
Down the emerald road
With a man I did not know
Ooh Bella please
Black Bella Louise maybe you've gone to make your peace

Where the north wind blows
Black Bella Louise
Where the frightened mountain cries to the sea
And there's greens and golds shining like you would not believe

My black Bella Louise maybe you've gone to make your peace

My black Bella Louise
Maybe you've gone to make your peace

Gone to make your peace
