She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
|
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
|
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
|
One of us will die inside these arms
|
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
|
One will spread our ashes 'round the yard
|
|
She says "If I leave before you, darling
|
Don't you waste me in the ground"
|
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
|
One of us will die inside these arms
|
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
|
One will spread our ashes round the yard
|
