Lyrics

[00:13.85] Here I lie in my hospital bed
[00:24.52] Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are ya coming round again?
[00:35.48] Oh, And I don't think I can wait that long
[00:46.27] Oh, you see that I'm not that strong
[01:05.10] The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
[01:16.58] Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
[01:27.03] What am I doing in this place?
[01:37.02] Why does the doctor have no face?
[01:48.37] Umm, I can't crawl across the floor
[01:57.89] Can't you see, Sister Morphine
[02:02.77] I'm just trying to score
[02:22.59]
[02:53.05] Well, it just goes to show things are not what they seem
[03:05.17] Tell me, Sister Morphine, can my nightmares turn into dreams?
[03:15.42] Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast
[03:24.42] And that this shot will be my last
[03:47.87] Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool hand on my head
[03:57.97] Come on Sister Morphine, will you make up my bed?
[04:07.00] 'Cause you know and I know in the morning, I'll be dead
[04:16.33] And you can sit around, and you can watch
[04:21.96] All the clean white sheets stained red
