Jaundiced yellow light is flashing Hanging above Church and Main On the wind her perfume lingers Likewise her Christian name Fields of night hang close above her The family lie in a dreamless sleep Frost grows on the windowpanes And the wind spins circles in the empty street
Shining white steeples Rise from the ground Ring all the bells you may And brace for the kiss of Mercy Brown
By the paper mill she wanders Singing melodies to the clouds A fox calls but none does answer Cross the green of hallowed ground Quietly beyond the threshold A pale hand on the bannister Looks upon the sleepers there And weeps at the memory of the way things were
Shining white steeples Alarm the town Ring all the bells you can And brace for the kiss of Mercy Brown
Two lovers in the moonlight Playing at hare and hounds Leaves fall upon the hillside Ruddy as the lips of young Miss Brown
Shining white steeples Alarm the town Ring all the bells you can Then brace for the kiss of Mercy Brown
Shining white steeples Dawn in the dark Be still your beating Your beating heart
