Let the sky grow dark With a heavy heart Let the funeral start x2
Suddenly it seemed Love is just a dream On a TV screen In a magazine
Mother please hold on Brother please be strong Let me play this song We all sang along I see trees are green, red roses to, scattered out for you On a grey stone I'm 12 years over I can?t stay sober And there?s a bluebird in my heart That?s caged and it can?t sing So fill your bloodlines Open up buttons kid this wont sting It?s like a slowing of your senses just might solve something Let the mourners of St Paul speak up the rain
Suddenly it seams I'm settled in my own routines I know the years gone I still sing the same sad song So when the snow has finally cleared I'm gonna spin away from here And wake my father?s bones And drag his ghost into the roads
This house could hold nothing but melodies So slumber such miserable memories So Just rule out the simplest kind Let?s drink some water he left behind
Suddenly it seams I'm settled in my own routines I know the years gone I still sing the same sad song Let the sky grow dark With a heavy heart Let the funeral start x2
