Funeral

Jesus, here lies my brother
Tortured and blown
Stretch for the heavens and go
...I watch him go
Here it comes
Jesus was a poor boy,
Jesus was a poor boy
"It´s just a spring clean for the may queen"
And this one´s for the life,
This one´s for the funeral in the rain
And if only for tonight,
This one´s for the funeral in the rain...
The day´s gone, and the year´s gone,
And I don´t know when I´m coming home
I can´t hold on to what I´ve had,
When in what I´ve had
There´s nothing left at all...
So this one´s for the life,
This one´s for the funeral in the rain
And if only for tonight,
Close your eyes and try to sleep again...
A world away, you turn away,
I´m wide awake, and I don´t need your home
Tell me why he went, it seems to be
An element to this mystery
It´s so cold today, so I get away,
And I´m left behind with nothing but words...
Tortured and blown
Stretch for the heavens and go
...I watch him go
Here it comes
Jesus was a poor boy,
Jesus was a poor boy
"It´s just a spring clean for the may queen"
And this one´s for the life,
This one´s for the funeral in the rain
And if only for tonight,
This one´s for the funeral in the rain...
The day´s gone, and the year´s gone,
And I don´t know when I´m coming home
I can´t hold on to what I´ve had,
When in what I´ve had
There´s nothing left at all...
So this one´s for the life,
This one´s for the funeral in the rain
And if only for tonight,
Close your eyes and try to sleep again...
A world away, you turn away,
I´m wide awake, and I don´t need your home
Tell me why he went, it seems to be
An element to this mystery
It´s so cold today, so I get away,
And I´m left behind with nothing but words...
