White Dove Lyrics

I met my new neighbor
Had a drink on her veranda
And we watched the ocean batter the needlepoint

"Do you have any children?"
Air around us changed
As grief washed across her face

White dove, white dove
White dove, white dove
What are you thinking of?

We had a daughter
Disappeared at eight
We gave them money
All we could do is wait
She's found
Garroted, bound

White dove, white dove
White dove, white dove
What are you thinking of?

Don't come around here no more It's not about mercy
Not about tears anymore
White dove, white dove
What are you thinking of?

Sword of vengeance
Occupies my mind
Who would do such a horrible crime?
Across the [cadence?]
Killing off our side
Bombs
Don't wear camouflage

White dove, white dove
What are you thinking of?
Don't come around here no more
It's not about mercy
Not about tears anymore

White dove, white dove
What are you thinking of?
