Sima Lyrics - Singles - Nilla Nielsen

Shes a rose in the desert , and velvet black eyes 

Shes an angel beneath the brittle clear skies 

She should be laughter and pigtails, couldnt be more than nine years old at the most 

Still shes walking the desert with eyes like a ghost 

Still shes walking the desert with eyes like a ghost 

She clings to my hand in this runaway land 

As we walk to the temple cross the mercyless sand 

Now I dont know where she came from and I dont know where shes been 

If this lake is so holy whys salvation so thin 

If this lake is so holy whys salvation so thin 

Sima says, wont you take me home 

Sima says, wont you be my mum, oh 

Sima says, wont you take me home 

Ill be good, Ill be good 

Ill be good, Ill be, oh so good 

Now Im down on my knees in the dark of the night 

Lord I shouldve saved her, I shouldve done what was right 

Now I dont know where shes sleeping and I dont know whos with her 

If theres a God somewhere out there please say hes walking with her 

Lord if your angels are out there please send them walking with her 

Sima says, wont you take me home 

Sima says, wont you be my mum, oh 

Sima says, must have done something wrong 

Ill do better, Ill do better 

Ill be good, Ill be, oh so good 

And I wish I had taken her out of that hole 

Now her eyes are forever engraved in my soul 

As we walked cross the sand in her runawayland 

Where my Sima now walks all alone, all alone
