|
Talking to a girl crying down the phone |
|
Now listen to me and try and catch your breath |
|
She said do you see the fear when you look in my eyes |
|
I'd really like to know what happens when we die |
|
Loving couples together for years |
|
Torn apart by their grieving |
|
We can hardly cope with this level of emotion |
|
Two people cannot mourn for years |
|
A doctor from the north, a friend of the family |
|
Is comforting your mother drinking in the front room |
|
I couldn't make the funeral I know it really hurt you |
|
Right now it just seems to me everybody's dying |
|
(When we die, When we die, When we die, When we die...) |
|
When I remember your father as a ghost |
|
Not an old man diagnosed with cancer |
|
Ten weeks later, lying in a hospice bed |
|
Surrounded by loved ones, learning how to die |
|
Talking to a stone, wailing at a grave |
|
Maybe when a year has past, go and see a medium |
|
Bury him with children, blame a suicide |
|
I'd really like to know what happens when we die |
|
Will the dead outnumber the living? |
|
The silent majority, spare parts for surgery |
|
We're not bespoke, we're not best fitted |
|
I'd really like to know what happens when we die |
|
When we die, When we die, When we die, I still miss you |
|
I know I really miss you |
