Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Will you say to them when I'm gone
"I loved your son for his sturdy arms
We both learned to cradle then live without"
Live without
Live without
[Verse 3]
Will you say when I'm gone away
"Your father's body was judgement day
We both dove and rose to the riverside"
Riverside
Riverside
[Verse 4]
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
[Outro]
Coming night
Coming night
Coming night
Coming night
