Walking across the sitting-room, I turn the television off

And it's ... hey babe with your guardian eyes so blue

Hey my baby don't you know our love is true

Coming closer with our eyes, a distance falls around our bodies
Bm F# G#m F#/A#
Out in the garden, the moon seems ve-ry bright
Am6 E/B B
Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly
Ebm/Bb F/C F Bb
The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand

And it's ... hey babe your supper's waiting for you

Hey my baby don't you know our love is true
