The Mortician's Daughter
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I open my lungs, dear
I sing this song at funerals, no rush
These lyrics heard a thousand times, just plush
A baby boy you've held so tightly
This pain it visits almost nightly
Missing hotel beds I feel your touch
I will wait, dear
A patient of eternity, my crush
A universal still, no rust
No dust will ever grow in this frame
One million years I will say your name
I love you more than I can ever scream
We booked our flight those years ago
I said I love you as I left you
Regrets still haunt my hollow head
But I promised you, I will see you again, again
I sit here and smile, dear
I smile because I think of you and blush
These bleeding hollow dials, this fuss
A fuss is made of miles and travels
When roadways are but stones and gravel
A bleeding heart and conquer every crutch
We booked our flight those years ago
You said you loved me as you left me
Regrets still haunt your saddened head
But I promised you I will see you
We booked our flight those years ago
I said I loved you and I left you
Regrets no longer in my head
But I promised you, and now I'm home again
Again, again, again, again, again
I'm home again
