It had seemed a good idea
But on reflection she had
Lost her passing days in the tears
Covered up and kept it to herself
Take the knocks and never tell
Whispers
Everyone had known
But it wasn't done to come between
A man and wife oh
Back in those days we crave
I'll be gone
And you will forget
Only the record in stone
Will speak for me yet
The floors creak
To unseen feet
She is here again
Words from no human voice
Circle my throat
Invade the silence
And catch my hands
I'll be gone
And you will forget
Unseen I'll be there
When it's quiet
And you're alone
The house will start to talk to you
It can tell
Through it's old bones
The memories of long ago
Alive in stone
(Nigel Kennedy/David Bottril/Doug Boyle/Caroline Lavelle) It had seemed a good idea But on reflection she had Lost her passing days in the tears Covered up and kept it to herself Take the knocks and never tell Whispers Everyone had known But it wasn't done to come between A man and wife oh Back in those days we crave I'll be gone And you will forget Only the record in stone Will speak for me yet The floors creak To unseen feet She is here again Words from no human voice Circle my throat Invade the silence And catch my hands I'll be gone And you will forget Unseen I'll be there When it's quiet And you're alone The house will start to talk to you It can tell Through it's old bones The memories of long ago Alive in stone Explain Request ×
