Things were all good yesterday
|
And then the devil took your memory
|
And if you fell to your death today
|
I hope that heaven is your resting place!
|
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain,
|
But then that could have been the medicine
|
And now you're lying in the bed again
|
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them.
|
|
Pre-chorus:
|
And my father told me,
|
'Son, it's not his fault he doesn't know your face!
|
And you're not the only one,
|
Although my grandpa used to say, that he used to say
|
He used to say
|
|
Chorus:
|
Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night!
|
And the lie inside for a little while he wrote
|
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
|
And we're wrapped in light, in life, in love!
|
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut,
|
For they're designed to be together, oh
|
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
|
And we're set alight, we're afire love, love, love oh.
|
|
Things were all good yesterday,
|
Then the devil took your breath away
|
And now we're left here in the pain
|
Black suit, black tie standing in the rain.
|
And now my family is one again
|
Stapled together but the stranger's never friend.
|
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen
|
Six years old I remember when
|
|
Pre-chorus:
|
And my father told me,
|
'Son, it's not his fault he doesn't know your face!
|
And you're not the only one,
|
Although my grandpa used to say, that he used to say
|
He used to say
|
|
Chorus:
|
Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night!
|
And the lie inside for a little while he wrote
|
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
|
And we're wrapped in light, in life, in love!
|
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut,
|
For they're designed to be together, oh
|
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
|
And we're set alight, we're afire love, love, love oh.
|
|
And my father and all of my family
|
Rise from the seats to sing 'hallelujah'
|
And my mother and all of my family
|
Rise from the seats to sing 'hallelujah'
|
And all of my brothers and my sisters, yeah
|
And my father and all of my family
|
Rise from the seats to sing 'hallelujah'
|
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
|
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
|
