Two Doves Lyrics

Two doves came in the snow and rain
Grey and white in the middle of the night
And they watched me, yes they watched me
And they pulled a wreath from the old oak tree
And you know they laid it right round me
Right round me
And does the holy notion hear our cry?
And do you tie your letters tight?
What do you see when you close your eyes?
Do you pray like me
In the middle of the night
And when the white dove, a light in the rain
Dove down deep, deep in the water

Yes, the water
And they grey dove laughed, babe take it back
Stay with me out of the water
Yes the water
And does the holy notion hear our cry?
And do you tie your letters tight?
What do you see when you close your eyes?
Do you cry out like me
In the middle of the night
And does the holy notion hear our cry?
And do you tie your letters tight?
What do you see when you close your eyes?
Do you pray like me?
Do you cry out like me?
Do you pray like me
In the middle of the night
