Two birds they come aflying--
Two crows in the night--
Two birds come aflying--
One black soot the other a snowy white.
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted Man.
His eyes were bloody rubies--
Hers were the blackest pearls--
His eyes were bloody rubies--
And they watched the night clouds' swirls.
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted Man.
Two birds they come aflying--
Two crows in the night--
Two birds come aflying--
One black soot the other a snowy white.
The Devil couldn't take them--
No matter how hard he tries--
The Devil couldn't take them--
They'd done pecked out his eyes.
Listen carefully in the dark and hear them laugh as the Devil cries.
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted man--
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted man--
Flying through the night, just outside the divine plan.

I enjoyed this.
@fading_roses19 - Gracias.
De nada.
That last line really made it for me! "Flying through the night just outside the divine plan" - perfect.
Nice. Got an early blues/almost Dylan feel.
Liked the song-story because of the way you portray this relationship. Bizarre in such an elegant way. Black-hearted Lindsey and The Cold-hearted Man are surely outside the divine plan, but their stone cold powers makes them irresistible.
I am more than pleased to read your work again!

I loved this!
@islefaye - Thank you!
