For days I've searched for the words   So I don't make a mess of this   I'll trade my eyes for a fleeting wish   I woke at 7 am   The cold air was not becoming   This tune I started humming   And you lay there so still   With dark eyes shut and whiskey breath   You hadn't taken off your black dress   The curtain fell from its rail   I shut the window so it wouldn't shatter   But it was nothing it didn't matter      To me our lives are barely built to last   How did you creep up on me so damn fast my dear?      I sat in the kitchen and thought   I've had a few knocks here and there   Was mostly my fault so I didn't care   You said I have a bad side   It comes when all the clocks have stopped   i feel my heart begin to drop      To me our lives are fast approaching death   So let's go out in my suit and your black dress my dear      You will come back   You will come back   You will come back   You will come back
