Dead man's will

Give this stone to my brother
Because we found it playing in the barnyard
Many years ago
Give this bone to my father
He´ll remember hunting in the hills
When I was ten years old
May my love reach you all
I lost it in myself and buried too long
Now that I come to fall
Please say it´s not too late
Now that I´m dead and gone
Give this string to my mother
It pulled the baby teeth
She keeps inside the drawer
Give this ring to my lover
I was scared and stupid not to ask
For her hand long before
May my love reach you all
I lost it in myself and buried too long
Now that I come to fall
Please say it´s not too late
Now that I´m dead and gone
Because we found it playing in the barnyard
Many years ago
Give this bone to my father
He´ll remember hunting in the hills
When I was ten years old
May my love reach you all
I lost it in myself and buried too long
Now that I come to fall
Please say it´s not too late
Now that I´m dead and gone
Give this string to my mother
It pulled the baby teeth
She keeps inside the drawer
Give this ring to my lover
I was scared and stupid not to ask
For her hand long before
May my love reach you all
I lost it in myself and buried too long
Now that I come to fall
Please say it´s not too late
Now that I´m dead and gone
