I noticed that
I passed a cemetery
Oh lord I held my breath
Dead they don't come back
Dead they don't come back
Dead they don't, dead they don't, dead they don't come back
And on my way to school
I passed that old graveyard
Life is mighty lonely
And life is mighty hard
Dead they don't wake up
Dead they don't wake up
Dead they don't, dead they don't, dead they don't wake up
Oh I am on a ride
Measure the distance in time
I can see your teardrops
Behind that black black veil
Made me hope for heaven
And me scared for hell
Dead they all will sleep
Dead they all will sleep
Dead they all, the dead they all, the dead they all will sleep
And from time to time
I think about my grave
When I'm gonna have one
And what's it gonna say
It feels good to rest
It's been a long long day
It's been a long, it's been a long, it's been a long long day
Oh I am on a ride
Measure the distance in time
And as sure as I was born
I will die
And on my way back home
Stopped at your tombstone
Said a prayer for you
I was tired and alone
Said lord I miss my friend
Who's underneath my feet
May her soul, oh may her soul, oh may her soul rest in peace
On my way to work I noticed that I passed a cemetery Oh lord I held my breath Dead they don't come back Dead they don't come back Dead they don't, dead they don't, dead they don't come back And on my way to school I passed that old graveyard Life is mighty lonely And life is mighty hard Dead they don't wake up Dead they don't wake up Dead they don't, dead they don't, dead they don't wake up Oh I am on a ride Measure the distance in time I can see your teardrops Behind that black black veil Made me hope for heaven And me scared for hell Dead they all will sleep Dead they all will sleep Dead they all, the dead they all, the dead they all will sleep And from time to time I think about my grave When I'm gonna have one And what's it gonna say It feels good to rest It's been a long long day It's been a long, it's been a long, it's been a long long day Oh I am on a ride Measure the distance in time And as sure as I was born I will die And on my way back home Stopped at your tombstone Said a prayer for you I was tired and alone Said lord I miss my friend Who's underneath my feet May her soul, oh may her soul, oh may her soul rest in peace Explain Request ×
