[00:04.91] You say you want to be buried beneath a mango tree
[00:13.03] Where if in the northern summer you come back to life
[00:20.82] You say you want your ashes mixed up with your lover’s salt
[00:29.06] Where every Sunday night he’ll eat a little more of you
[00:37.32] You say you can’t stop crying, it’s just the power of the song
[00:45.68] Riding on the midnight bus again
[00:53.57] And you say that you loved him but you were just too young
[01:02.14] You say that’s why you still wait in the rain
[01:10.23] You say a lot of things
[01:19.72]
[01:34.08] And you say that your daddy was a painter of sorts
[01:42.70] But I never saw him paint a thing
[01:50.42] He just kept the tins underneath his bed
[01:58.56] And sniffed a different colour every night
[02:06.29] And dreamed of a place up in the sky
[02:16.00] Where everyone’s a painter till they die
[02:25.71]
[02:40.10] You say you don’t like flying on aeroplanes
[02:49.05] That even seabirds must get lonely out there
[02:57.95] You said you were quitting after your next pack
[03:05.58] And you said once that I was beautiful
[03:13.22] But for all the pretty ladies in Beijing
[03:21.60] I couldn’t stop my drinking
[03:30.52] And you say a lot of
[03:34.34] You say a lot of
[03:38.47] You say a lot of things
[03:54.44]
[04:22.56] You say you can’t stop dreaming about your funeral day
[04:33.07] Where all your long-time friends will be crying for you
[04:41.74] And I’d be up the back with a rose in my hand
[04:50.39] And I’d give to you in death what I could not in life
[04:55.92]
[00:04.91] You say you want to be buried beneath a mango tree
[00:13.03] Where if in the northern summer you come back to life
[00:20.82] You say you want your ashes mixed up with your lover' s salt
[00:29.06] Where every Sunday night he' ll eat a little more of you
[00:37.32] You say you can' t stop crying, it' s just the power of the song
