letra de kimberly - alternate take - patti smith

[verse 1]
the wall is high, the black barn
the babe in my arms in her swaddling clothes
and i know soon

[pre-chorus]
that the sky will split
and the planets will shift
b-lls of jade will drop
and existence will stop

[chorus]
little sister, the sky is falling, i don’t mind, i don’t mind
little sister, the fates are calling on you

[verse 2]
ah, here i stand again in this old ‘lectric whirlwind
the sea rushes up my knees like flame
and i feel like just some misplaced joan of arc
and the cause is you lookin’ up at me
oh baby, i remember when you were born
it was dawn and the storm settled in my belly
and i rolled in the grass and i spit out the gas
and i lit a match and the void went flash

[pre-chorus]
and the sky split
and the planets hit
b-lls of jade dropped
and existence stopped, stopped, stop, stop
[chorus]
little sister, the sky is falling, i don’t mind, i don’t mind
little sister, the fates are calling on you

[verse 3]
i was goin’ crazy, so crazy i knew it was true that i could break through with you
so with one hand, i reached for you
and with one heart, i rocked you
close together
i’d always prayed alone, on my own
in the big black barn, ain’t it deadly, hun
’cause i could never go further
when your head was like an egg
like the egg that squeezed from the back of my skull
like when the liquid comes, i know i’m on my own
so i brushed you against me, and i wasn’t alone
and i prayed as the lightning flashed in that barn that
something would make it go crack
something would make it go crack
something would make it go crack
something would make it go crack

[outro]
the palm trees fall into the sea
it doesn’t matter much to me
as long as you’re safe, kimberly
and i can look, look
deep into your starry eyes, baby
looking deep in your eyes, baby
looking deep in your eyes, baby
looking deep in your eyes, oh-oh
woah-oh, ooh
