Joan Of Arc Lyrics - Singles - Jennifer Warnes

(with guest vocal by leonard cohen) 

(l. cohen) 

Now the flames they followed joan of arc 

As she came riding through the dark; 

No moon to keep her armour bright, 

No man to get her through this dark and smoky night. 

She said, "i'm tired of the war, 

I want the kind of work I had before, 

A wedding dress or something white 

To wear upon my swollen appetite."

"and I love your solitude, I love your pride." 

"well then fire, make your body cold, 

I'm gonna give you mine to hold," 

Saying this she climbed inside 

To be his one, to be his only bride. 

And deep into his fiery heart 

He took the dust of joan of arc, 

And high above all these wedding guests 

He hung the ashes of her lovely wedding dress. 

La... 

It was deep into his fiery heart 

He took the dust of joan of arc, 

And then she clearly understood 

If he was fire, oh she must be wood. 

I saw her wince, I saw her cry, 

I saw the glory in her eye. 

Myself I long for love and light, 

But must it come so cruel, must it be so brave? 

La...
