Will you say when I'm gone away
"My lover came to me and we'd lay
In rooms unfamiliar but until now
Until now, until now"
Will you say to them when I'm gone
"I loved your son for his steady arms
We both learned to cradle then live without
Live without, live without"
Will you say when I'm gone away
"Your father's body was judgment day
We both dove and rose to the riverside
Riverside, riverside"
Will you say to me when I'm gone
"Your face has faded but lingers on
Cause light strikes a deal with each coming night
Coming night, coming night, coming night, coming night
Coming night, coming night"
