Sycamore
Bury me in the woods where the flowers bloomAnd the roots of the trees and leaves will be my tombLet my flesh feed the sycamore treeIn whose arms you can climb if you ever feel you're missing meOver my body and bones roses they riseAnd the name on my stone is claimed by the growing vinesLet my flesh feed the weeping willow treeIn whose shade you can lie if you ever feel you're missing meOnly one thing's certainOne day there'll fall a curtainOur bodies they will worsenBut love will soothe the hurtingAnd you can't run or bargainBeg or plead for pardonThough remote it's always ardentWhich causes hearts to hardenI've no wish to dieI've no wish to leave your sideBut if I go before you then heed these words of mineLet my flesh feed the sycamore treeIn whose arms you can lie if you ever feel you're missing meOnly one thing's certainSongtexteOne day there'll fall a curtainOur bodies they will worsenBut love will soothe the hurtingAnd you can't run or bargainBeg or plead for pardonThough remote it's always ardentWhich causes hearts to hardenWhen night shuts my eyesI'm gone, I'm goneA fire without a lightI'm gone, I'm gone Aus Songtexte Mania
