She says "wake up, it´s no use pretending"
I´ll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn´s ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes ´round the yard.

She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don´t you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard.
