Lyrics

[00:13.870] She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
[00:18.600] I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
[00:24.670] Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
[00:30.230] One of us will die inside these arms
[00:39.080] Eyes wide open, naked as we came
[00:50.200] One will spread our ashes 'round the yard
[01:21.540] She says "If I leave before you, darling
[01:25.720] Don't you waste me in the ground"
[01:32.410] I lay smiling like our sleeping children
[01:37.730] One of us will die inside these arms
[01:46.100] Eyes wide open, naked as we came
[01:57.420] One will spread our ashes round the yard
