A memory's lament
Reuben and the dark
(Capo 5th fret)
I wrote a song for the ones that I remember
A memory's lament, all the lovers I have met
Well I wrote a song for the the ones that I forget
And take these, dreams from me
I don't need an easy way now...
They're just dragging my body around
Well I... Buried my brother, I
Buried my lover, I
Buried my head in my hands...
And you said
All of my burdens are
Too much to bear, and your fingers through my hair
When I wanted you to stay with me
You come from the forest I bet
With hair as long as a sunset...
You come from the forest I bet
With soul as good as a hunter's guess
And I was, younger than you
Well I saw these wicked ways
Another bill that time will... Pay
Well I... Buried my brother, I
Buried my lover, I
Buried my head in my hands
And you said...
All of my burdens are
Too much to bear, and your fingers through my hair
When I wanted you to stay with me
Who knew you'd be leaving me for
Buried my brother, I
Buried my lover, I
Buried my head in my hands
And you said
All of my burdens are
Too much to bear, and your fingers through my hair
When I wanted you to stay with me
Who knew you'd be leaving me for dead... (ends on am)
