There’s an honest man I know
In a welfare alliance
There’s some stairs in the air
You can call him a good friend of mine
Good friend of mine
He was taken down by the man at his door
Cloak of desperation
Yeah got wrapped round his soul
Wrapped round his soul
Sew him a coat of mail
Make it alright
Send him the wind to sail in
Sew him a coat of mail
Coat of mail
Coat of mail
Coat of mail
I stood below your window
You know some things I understand
Out in the world’s a struggle
Every man needs a plan
Every man needs a plan
You listen without words
You know it's not everyone can see
And recognise your eyes
Yeah they once belonged to me
Once belonged to me
Sew him a coat of mail
Make it alright
Send him the wind to sail in
Sew him a coat of mail
Coat of mail
Coat of mail
Coat of mail
Yeah you walked the street at sunrise
No matter where you turn
There’s questions without answers
And they continue to burn
Continue
It’s a fine thread can keep you in this place
I see you’ve found yourself something
Because its written on your face
Written on your face
Sew him a coat of mail
Make it alright
Send him the wind to sail in
Sew him a coat of mail
Coat of mail
Coat of mail
Coat of mail
