Amanda Anne Platt Y The Honeycutters - Saint Sebastian Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Me and mama searchin' for Florence
Up and down these rows of stones
Birds are singing in the juniper branches
Bells are ringing though the churches are closed

[Verse 2]
And papa says are cards are the devil's distraction
We play Briscola, just mama and me
In one hand she's holdin' the three of denari
The other is wearin' out her rosary

[Pre-Chorus]
Such a strange holiday
The neighbor's children can't come out to play
She lights a candle, she stands in the window singin'

[Chorus]
"Can you hear me, sweet saint Sеbastian?
Can you see this flame I hold?
If you hear me, all that I'm askin'
Why must wе walk through the valley alone?"

[Verse 3]
And papa makes wine from the fruit in the garden
Mama's eyes are a far away scene
She combs my hair, I ​sit on a barstool
Her hands smell like rosewater and aniseed
[Pre-Chorus]
Such a strange holiday
They're talkin' in whispers, can't hear what they're sayin'
But she lights a candle, and stands in the window, singin'

[Chorus]
"Can you hear me, sweet saint Sebastian?
Can you see this flame I hold?
If you hear me, all that I'm askin'
Why must we walk through the valley alone?"

[Verse 4]
Me and mama searchin' for Florence
I'm now to climb on the angel's wings
And mama won't laugh when I hide in the juniper
I want her to look at me but she's just searchin' for Florence
