Never Land (full version)
The 2006 reissue of The Sisters or Mercy's second album Floodland had - for the first time -
the full demo version of this song as a bonus track.
The song is also included in Rhino's re-released albums compilation, the Merciful Release 3CD Box issued in 2007.
The usual version Never Land (a fragment) is, however, also included.
Although a full length demo of this song had surfaced in the past, it was mostly an instrumental.
Lyrics
And when your nerves break your thought
And my word break your will
And the heart break me over this wheel
They are coming down
Wait for
Hand in hand in hand in hand
They are coming down
Wait for
They are coming down
But we will
Never never never land
I had a face on the mirror
I had a hand on the gun
I had a place in the sun and a
Ticket to Syria
I had everything within my reach
I had money and stuff
Each and every call
Too much but never enough
Tear it up and watch it fall
They are coming down
Wait for
Hand in hand in hand in hand
They are coming down
Wait for
They are coming down
But we will
Never never land
With our backs to the sky
And our eyes on the ground
With the clouds far below
No horizon around
With the wind in our face
And our arms open wide
We shall pass through this place
To the other side
All the days of our lives
All the ways of our calling
Follow...
