Let the sky grow dark with a heavy heart
Let the funeral start, Let the funeral start
Suddenly it seemed love was just a dream
On a TV screen, in a magazine.

Mother please hold on, brother please be strong
Yeah, they played a song, we all sang along
‘I see trees of green, red roses too' scattered out for you, on a gravestone new.

I'm 12 years older. I can't stay sober.

There's a bluebird in my heart thats caged and it can't sing
So fill your bloodlines up with bourbon kid and this won't sting
It's like the slowing of your senses just might solve something
Let the mourners of St. Pauls lead the parade

Suddenly it seems I'm settled in my old routines
Another year has gone, I'll still sing the same, sad songs
So when this snow has finally cleared, I'm gonna swim away from here
Wake my father's bones, drag his ghost into the road.

	(Sometimes the first 2 lines of the next verse are done 
	like the '12 Years older..." bit and other 
	times it's just like the first verse)

This house could hold nothing but melody
So sombre, such miserable memory 
Three cheers for love of the simplest kind
Lets drink to all that we left behind

Suddenly it seems I'm settled in my old routines
Another year has gone, I still sing the same, sad song
Let the sky grow dark, with a heavy heart
Let the funeral start, let the funeral start.
